| Zusammenfassung: | The pastor of a church hosting a food bank, reflects on how context affects the similarities and dissimilarities of Karl Barth's and James H. Cone's theologies. This is done in order to gain a theological understanding of the propensity of dehumanization in Toronto, Canada. Both Barth and Cone expected theology to be the work of the Church; although in divergent ways, they both considered God's self-revelation in Christ to be the sign of God claiming humans as beloved. This comparative analysis requires theological and critical thinking on racism. While juxtaposing the Barth-Cone contexts and resulting theologies with the challenges of Black Canadians, one can appoint theological understanding to any church's mission and outreach that serves the marginalized. |
