Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What makes one person seem merely unusual, while another with similar traits is pushed to the edge of acceptance and treated like a pariah?Could it be that behavior is judged differently depending on the culture and times in which we live? And why is our instinct so often to isolate and separate rather than understand and seek inclusiveness?In MARGiNALIZED, Mark A. Cornelius explores both the marginalized and the marginalizers. With candor, reflection, and spiritual insight, he examines the subtle and sophisticated ways individuals and societies define cultural norms, assign status, and quietly stack the deck against those who think, act, or live differently.This book asks difficult but necessary questions: Do we truly want the best for others, or only as long as we ourselves remain better positioned? What happens when exclusion becomes a habit of thought? Is de-marginalization really something we want-or only something we say we value?More than a social critique, MARGiNALIZED is an exploration of the spiritual and relational consequences of exclusion. It challenges readers to examine the ways marginalization affects us personally, socially, and spiritually-and to consider what genuine unity, covenant, and community might require.
