Dr René Padilla is a prominent theologian and social activist based in Buenos Aires where he works with churches to help meet the spiritual and material needs of impoverished communities. In this short film, Dr Padilla talks about the impact of the Books for Life programme in supporting the Church to serve the poor and marginalised.
Theology, to be relevant to life, has to be contextual. The Study Guides published by SPCK can be a tremendous help to people to broaden their concept of their religion or church.
