The Postcolonial Church: Bible, Theology, and Mission

The Postcolonial Church: Bible, Theology and Mission is an interdisciplinary project that uses a postcolonial reading lens to critique coloniality and misuse of power in the Kenyan Church as well as society. The authors discuss how power can be misused, causing untold violence against innocent victims. In the spirit of activism and social justice, the book calls for ending of violence against the so called Other in all its forms—including but not limited to political violence, religious violence, gender violence, and economic violence. Consequently, this book can be a resource for church leaders and social justice activists. It is also useful to scholars and students in the fields of Bible and Theology, political science, gender studies, racial/ethnic conflict management, and peace studies, among others.
