Postcolonial\Native Readings of Kings
The books of Kings decolonize themselves. They open with a (c)old and dysfunctional King David, and Solomon comes next to enslave Israel to carry out his empire building projects in order to fulfill Yhwh’s covenant with David. Yet Solomon is praised as a wise, peacemaking king. After Solomon, the divide between Israel and Judah dominates the rest of the narrative, ending with two exiles: Israel, to Assyria, and Judah, to Babylon. Those left behin…

Dialogues: Anthropology and Theology
The past five years have witnessed an increased interest in a dialogue between anthropology and theology, evidenced in part by a suite of edited volumes (e.g. Lauterbach & Vähäkangas 2020; Lemons 2018; Tomlinson & Mathews 2018). Analyses informed by this interdisciplinary nexus have demonstrated the utility of theological concepts for anthropological inquiry (e.g. Robbins 2020; Tomlinson 2020; Williams Green 2021). The following series of dialogu…

Going Native: ReStorying Theology and Hermeneutics
The Covid pandemic reminds us of the bad effects of contact with outside civilisations - colonisation of (is)lands, bodies, minds and spirits. In colonised Pasifika, natives were dispossessed and shunned; but in the ‘new normal’, Native wisdom could heal theological and hermeneutical tasks. Seeing the practices of contextualisation as tools for the colonial and missionary projects, this article presents talanoa (orality, oratory) and kautaha (wor…

Mission and Context
Mission is contrived from and performed over lived contexts, but the visions that guide and drive mission are oftentimes blinded by power, position, protection, and plenitude. This collection visits those matters with queering attention to the shadows that empires cast over the contexts of mission, and to the collusion and complicity of Christians and churches with empires past (as in the case of Rome) and present (as in the case of the United St…
Vulnerability and Resilience: Body and Liberating Theologies
In Vulnerability and Resilience, vulnerability is not the final word. Rather, resilience provides the cutting edge and living breath in the stories of subjects who are vulnerable. And they have many stories: stories of being trapped in bodies, teachings, and/or situations that make them (and others like them) vulnerable to discrimination, hatred, and rejection; stories of being trapped because of their bodies, theologies, and/or cultures; and sto…
Scripture and Resistance
Resistance against unjust (wicked) cultures and imperial powers is at the heart of scripture. In many cases, the resistance is waged against external systems or the misappropriation of scriptural texts and traditions. In some cases, however, scripture resists oppressive cultures and powers that it also requires, certifies and protects. At other times, and in different settings, the minders of scripture speak against the abusive cultures and power…

Colonial Contexts and Postcolonial Theologies
Colonial Contexts and Postcolonial Theology focuses on what postcolonial theologies look like in colonial contexts, particularly in dialogue with the First Nations Peoples in Australia and the Asia-Pa
Indigenous Australia and the Unfinished Business of Theology
This book engages a complex subject that mainline theologies avoid, Indigenous Australia. The heritages, wisdoms and dreams of Indigenous Australians are tormented by the discriminating mindsets and c
Asia in/and the Bible
The Bible and Asia is like a town square where many paths cross. Readers will be engaged and teased in a number of ways—depending on the paths they have travelled to get to this book, and the paths
Diaspora Contexted: Talanoa, Reading, and Theologizing, as Migrants
This article invites talanoa around modes of interpretation that appeal to migrants who practice biblical and theological reflection on lands in which we are foreign. How might we read scriptures and engage sacred realities on lands such as Australia, where “First Peoples” are disliked, displaced, and disadvantaged? I weave three supplementing options: contextual, liberation, and postcolonial modes of reading and theologizing
The Politics of Climate Change: A Talanoa from Oceania
This article is an invitation to Talanoa (story, telling, conversation) around the politics of climate change. I seek not to debate whether climate change is natural or caused and accelerated by human conducts and our carbon civilization, nor to suggest excuses or cures for the ecological crises that devastate and drown people daily, the world over. Rather, my concern circles around two overlapping questions, under the shadow of which lurk the po…
