Liberation theology is a dominant theme in Latin America.

Costas, Samuel Escobar, Andrew Kirk, Emilio A. Nunez, and C. Rene Padilla have sought to further this evangelical understanding of liberation. Their work has transformed the way churches minister amid poverty and influenced theological thought both nationally and internationally. This work presents vital Latin American evangelical theology that seeks to be biblical, relevant, and missiologically effective and that offers holistic, grounded liberation.
