This book is the sequel to A Theology of Liberation , which without Gutierrez's theology cannot be completely understood, and which has profound contemporary implications, and develops a spirituality of liberation in solidarity with the poor. The book outlines a spirituality born out of Latin America that, while rooted in the particularity of its own context, yet has great significance beyond it. It indicates that acknowledging our spiritual poverty can be the start of opening up to God; and that individual spirituality is only authentic when it is following Jesus, which leads inevitably to community and the one-ness of the world family.
