My name is Richard Silva, I'm a young Brazilian writer(17) who just published their first book. Since I was a kid I wrote things, but for the first time, I made something I am going to share with the world. Currently, I'm finishing Brazilian integral high school, which in other words, wastes 9 hours of my day with mostly nothing. It's very stressful, and leaves me with not much appropriate time for actually writing quality content, so you might imagine how many reviews this book had to get before I felt like I was satisfied.

I would like to encourage you to read my book, and share your thoughts on it, of course, it's me first one, so constructive criticism is very welcomed. My desire is to be able to make a living out of my art, and when reading this book, you are helping me make this dream possible :)

And please, if you did enjoy it(even if it's a little bit), leave me a review on google play saying how much you like it, and why you like it. As for you, fellow Brazilians, a version in Portuguese is coming soon!

In the realm of contemporary theological discourse, a spirited debate unfolds, igniting a clash of ideas that bridges the ancient with the postmodern. Black Liberation Theology, once a voice in the theological wilderness, has experienced a revival in postmodern America, challenging traditional perspectives on the inspiration and authority of Scripture. Renowned theologians such as Karl Barth, James Cone, Robert McAfee Brown, and J. Deotis Roberts have breathed new life into age-old conversations of faith. This resurgence is not confined to theological texts; it has transcended the pulpit and reached the hearts of those seeking justice, identity, and social change. Liberation theology's concepts have found resonance in political, social, and economic discussions, forging connections between postmodern society and the Church. For many, the words of these theologians have become synonymous with a modern biblical truth, a truth that questions and adapts. However, at its core, the debate centers on whether Scripture is "inspired" only through direct divine encounters, potentially redefining the propositional essence of Scripture. Amidst this theological tempest, 2 Timothy 3:16-17 emerges as a battleground, scrutinized from various angles. The debate continues, guided by an author who presents the topic with clarity and charm. As we explore this complex landscape, faith and interpretation intersect, shaping the future of theology and understanding in a rapidly changing world. This book invites readers into a dynamic and thought-provoking conversation, a journey through the labyrinth of contemporary theological dialogue.
