In Indigenous and Christian Perspectives in Dialogue, Allen G.
Jorgenson asks what Christian theologians might learn from
Indigenous spiritualties and worldviews. Jorgenson argues that
theology in North America has been captive to colonial conceits and
has lost sight of key resources in a post-Christendom context. The
volume is especially concerned with the loss of a sense of place,
evident in theologies written without attention to context. Using a
comparative theology methodology, wherein more than one faith
tradition is engaged in dialogical exploration, Jorgenson uses
insights from Indigenous understandings of place to illumine
forgotten or obstructed themes in Christianity. In this
constructive theological project, "kairotic" places are named as
those that are kenotic, harmonic, poetic and especially
enlightening at the margins, where we meet the religious other.
