Description
Summary:This paper aims to introduce and argue the need for laylayan theology. It theologizes a Filipino cultural concept that has been appropriated that privileges and brings to the fore the voices of the people from the margins. In this study, the invaluable contributions of indigenous Christian youths, the basic ecclesial communities, and bai (Filipina Christian leaders) to the Christian faith and mission are articulated. Laylayan theology hopes to promote further reflections and discourse towards prophetic dialogue between Christians from the margins and other members of society.
