{"product_id":"9781621890447","title":"Redeeming the Broken Body: Church and State after Disaster","description":"This book examines how repertoires of speech and action that are often considered to be mutually exclusive--those of church and state--clash or unite during the postdisaster period as local communities and cities struggle to establish a stable collective identity. Based on an analysis of forty in-depth interviews with disaster-response participants and over 325 print-media sources, this study explores, first, the extent to which ministers and citizens challenge statist narratives in order to publicly relay theological views; second, the cultural processes by which local places are nationalized and theologized; and third, the ecclesiological convictions necessary to peaceably advance the work of Christ's body after disasters.","brand":"Wipf \u0026 Stock Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47134402281712,"sku":"9781621890447","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781621890447_p0.jpg?v=1763864839","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781621890447","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
