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-Pacific. The contributors have roots in the Asia-Pacific, but the struggles, theologies and concerns they address are shared across the seas. As a collection, this book is a work in "Storyweaving," which means, simply, the weaving of stories and memories that enliven journeys, traditions, histories and customs, with their pains and longings. A rich selection of theological themes and concerns are woven together in this book: the challenges of Postcolonialism; Theology as Struggle; rethinking Trinity in Samoa; cost of the Grand Canal Project in Korea; Postcolonial Samoan Hermeneutics; Empire in Postapocalyptic Mark; Indonesian Postcolonial Perspective; Natives in Pasifika; John Green as ngamadjidj; Masculinity and Missionaries; Law and Sovereignty; Terra Nullius Amnesiacs; Holy Communion with Indigenous elements; Homemaking; Acknowledging Traditional Owners; and Indigenous Perspective on Mission
