- Summary:
- Shelter Theology offers insight into the theological worlds of often invisible people: individuals experiencing homelessness and those living in extreme poverty. Based on over ten years of chaplaincy in a homeless shelter, Dunlap shares the nuanced theology of people living in harsh circumstances and outlines how their beliefs and practices enable survival and resistance. Dunlap shows how the religious life of those living without homes both challenges and enhances the faithfulness of people of privilege.
