«Jung Eun Sophia Park’s volume shows the rich potential for biblical studies to illumine cultural studies and vice versa. Her more classical socio-rhetorical work is fruitful when brought to bear on Asian American material as well as on the pericope from John’s Gospel, and her ethnographic methodology, honed for use in a context of dislocation and alienation, brings the biblical character of the woman taken in adultery into fresh relief. Throughout, Park’s work makes explicit how to approach a study in Christian spirituality, with experiential and transformative possibilities made focal continually.» (Barbara Green, O.P., Professor of Biblical Studies, Dominican School of Philosophy and Theology, Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, California)<br /> «Jung Eun Sophia Park’s book invites readers to ‘cross over’ into the world of the formation of ‘baby shamans’ in Korea, and then ‘come back’ for enriched Christian reflection on Biblical spiritual resources. Her cross-cultural, interdisciplinary, interfaith exploration of spiritual formation enriches our cultural and spiritual horizons.» (Judith Berling, Professor of Chinese and Comparative Religions, Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, California)
