How does the experience of being an immigrant, an ethnic minority person on the margins of society, affect one's way of doing theology? In Journeys at the Margin prominent Asian-American theologians reflect on how being an Asian and a North American has shaped the way they understand the Christian story.

Asian Americans, having roots in Asia, do not fully belong either to America or Asia. They find themselves straddling two different world cultures, sharing something of both but belonging entirely to neither. Thus, their marginality can best be understood in terms of their experience of living "in-between" two cultures, that of the immigrant and that of the dominant group, and being "in-both" of these cultures--and, ultimately, being "in-beyond" the two cultures altogether.

Coming from different parts of the Far East and nourished by diverse Christian traditions, the contributors to Journeys at the Margin bring to their work richly divergent perspectives, resources, and methods. More than an anthology of personal stories, this collection of essays develops the emerging theological themes (including the contributors' visions of a new America) out of their experience. What binds these highly varied essays is their authors' common journeys at the margin.

As the United States becomes increasingly multiethnic and multicultural at the threshold of a new millennium, Journeys at the Margin offers useful suggestions on how to meet the challenge of cultural diversity in both Church and society.

Outstanding Performance, Minimal Installation Guidance Needed
I am delighted to award five stars to the cabin air filter with activated charcoal for my 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe Z71. Installation was a breeze, and it fits my vehicle perfectly. The activated charcoal feature is incredibly effective in eliminating odors and enhancing air quality within the cabin. While the absence of written instructions was a minor inconvenience, a quick reference to the item listing on Amazon provided the necessary guidance for installation. Once in place, the filter performed admirably, ensuring a clean and fresh interior environment. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend this product to anyone seeking to upgrade their car’s air filtration system. Its exceptional performance and ease of installation make it a standout choice. Five stars without a doubt.

Too restrictive!
If you like air flow do not buy this filter. I put it in my 2020 Super duty and had very little air coming out with the fan as high as it would go. Stopped and bought the standard Microguard from Orielly's. I changed it in the parking lot and Bam!!! back to blowing my hat off!

IMPRESSED!
Item Package Quantity: 1, Item Package Quantity: 1
I bought this for my Honda civic 2017 lx 1.5 and it is a perfect fit. I didn’t realize how important it is to change it. Let me tell you if you are thinking about buying this, it’s your sign not JUST because of health which is vital and first and foremost but the PRICE! At any oil change or auto shop they will charge no less than 50$ and I’ve seen higher. I will continue to buy this brand. I will update in my next 5,000 miles. 8.00$ or 50$+ and the quality is EXACTLY the same, your choice.

2016 Honda civic ex
Item Package Quantity: 1
Fits perfectly in my 2016 Honda Civic EX. Installation was quick and easy, and the air coming from the vents smells much cleaner now. It seems to trap dust and pollen well and is a good replacement for the OEM filter.
