WHO WE ARE
The cornerstones Word and World have been a series of ecumenical and inclusive schools that integrate the insights and experiences of “seminary, sanctuary, and street”: the first school in Greensboro, NC, focused on the legacies of the civil rights movement; the second in Tucson, AR, centered on the philosophies and practices of liberation theology; the third school in Philadelphia, PA highlighted the struggles of the peace movement; and the fourth school in Rochester, NY focused on the social, economic, and ecclesiastical changes engendered by faith-based feminist, womanist, mujerista, and LGBT movements. Subsequent schools in Memphis, TN and Tar Heel, NC drew on the tradition of faith and labor organizing for economic justice. The legacy of these “streams” informed the Mentoring Program curriculum. In partnership with Bartimaeus Cooperative, Word and World offers the daily blog www.radicaldiscipleship.net, a daily-updated blog focused on telling stories about what is happening on the ground among faith communities that actively yearn for a world defined by peace, justice and dignity for every living being.
