Coming full circle
Book Description
Coming Full Circle invites readers into a groundbreaking exploration where Native American spiritual wisdom meets Christian theological tradition. Steven Charleston brings together distinguished scholars to examine how indigenous perspectives can enrich and transform contemporary Christian understanding.
This thoughtful volume presents a comprehensive framework for Native Christian theology, offering readers a unique lens through which to view familiar doctrines and practices. Rather than treating these two spiritual traditions as separate entities, the contributors demonstrate how Native theory and Christian practice can create meaningful dialogue and mutual enrichment.
The book moves beyond theoretical discussion to provide practical applications, presenting what the authors call a "theology in outline" that addresses specific Christian doctrines through a Native American interpretive framework. This approach opens new pathways for understanding faith, community, and spiritual practice.
For readers seeking fresh perspectives on Christianity or those interested in interfaith dialogue, this work offers valuable insights into how different spiritual traditions can inform and strengthen one another. The volume serves as both an academic resource and a spiritual guide for anyone curious about the intersection of indigenous wisdom and Christian faith.
Through careful scholarship and respectful engagement, Coming Full Circle demonstrates how ancient Native American insights can illuminate contemporary spiritual questions, creating space for a more inclusive and enriched theological conversation.
