What thresholds of theology would we cross if we engage the aches
and despairs, wisdoms and hopes in and of Aotearoa New Zealand, and
the neighboring sea of islands? What thresholds need to be jarred
or moved (threshold as opening), probed and raised (threshold as
limit, ceiling)? This book engages these questions, over two
vaults: (1) "(re)Locating theological studies" contains essays that
interrogate the purposes of theological studies (locally and
globally), identify gaps due to the Western heritage and blind
spots of "traditional theology," and provide examples of how those
gaps may be bridged when local concerns are engaged; (2)
"Nativizing theological studies" contains essays that present and
engage the heritage and wisdom of tangata whenua (indigenous,
native people) of Aotearoa and Pasifika. These essays reaffirm the
"native" rhetoric with pride. Overall, this collection of essays
affirms that theological studies have a future, and that there is a
role for theologians in and from Aotearoa New Zealand and Pasifika
to play in navigating (into) that future.
