Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus once counseled us to "buy medicine for your eyes from me so you can see, really see" (Rev. 3: 18 MSG). Kissing the Leper is about getting our eyes repaired from religious and cultural prejudice so that we can see Jesus in others, especially those that our world discards as "the least." The author has compiled the voices and testimonies of historical and contemporary practitioners to develop a devotional theology of encounter. Specifically, he challenges us to meet and welcome Christ in human form from the society's margins to the banqueting table of God.
