I recommend this book to theologians attracted to ethnography, and vice versa, as a varied and thorough exploration of the gifts and challenges that dwell at the intersection of those endeavors. Theological educators may take an interest as well; the theme of integrating community engagement into theological study runs throughout the book. Many of the questions of scholarly subjectivity and research ethics raised herein are familiar for those trained in ethnography. However, the project is clearly breaking new ground in raising these questions in the context of theological scholarship, a development to be celebrated.
