Indigenous Theology and the Western Worldview: A Decolonized Approach to Christian Doctrine Paperback - 2022
by Randy S. Woodley; H. Daniel Zacharias (Editor)
From the rear cover
"A wise pathway to decolonizing Western doctrine and practice"
Cherokee teacher, missiologist, and historian Randy Woodley encourages us to reject the many problematic aspects of the Western worldview and to convert to a worldview that is closer to that of both Indigenous traditions and Jesus.
"Indigenous Theology and the Western Worldview shakes the very foundations of Christian theology, challenging us to rebuild from the ruins, celebrating the gracious gift of Indigenous people's creation-centered, narrative-based vision of the Jesus Way."
--Peter Goodwin Heltzel, Boston University School of Theology
"This book isn't business as usual. Woodley isn't business as usual either. And thank God! Woodley puts a mirror up to Western civilization and the Christian theology typical of it. The sight isn't pretty. Its history is full of ugly episodes and its worldview has been so harmful. But Woodley's Indigenous theology offers correctives. This book gives me hope!"
--Thomas Jay Oord, director, Center for Open and Relational Theology
"A wise pathway to decolonizing Western doctrine and practice; spaciously inviting readers to rediscover our place as creatures within Creator's ecosystem. Abounding in story and conversation, Woodley's book demonstrates how a profoundly human, relational, and located theological method can open you to the wonder and presence of Creator in the everyday stuff of life."
--Dwight J. Friesen, The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology; coauthor of 2020s Foresight: Three Vital Practices for Thriving in a Decade of Accelerating Change
"Woodley has gifted us with a book that cannot be put down. With a balance of wisdom, humility, and humor, he introduces us to a history that has not been told but that holds truths needed for living well on Turtle Island/North America. In this book you will discover powerful comparative analysis, stories well told, and the sacred character of land, place, and space. Woodley introduces us to the Indigenous Jesus, and you will never be the same after meeting him."
--Allen Jorgenson, Martin Luther University College at Wilfrid Laurier University; author of Indigenous and Christian Perspectives in Dialogue
