Jorgenson, explores the potential learning opportunities for Christian theologians from Indigenous spiritualties and worldviews. Jorgenson contends that theology in North America has been influenced by colonial perspectives and has overlooked valuable resources in a post-Christendom context. The book particularly focuses on the loss of a sense of place, which is evident in theologies that are written without considering their contextual background. Jorgenson employs a comparative theology methodology, engaging multiple faith traditions in dialogical exploration. He draws insights from Indigenous understandings of place to shed light on overlooked or obscured themes in Christianity. In this constructive theological endeavor, Jorgenson identifies \"kairotic\" places as those that are characterized by kenotic, harmonious, poetic, and particularly enlightening characteristics at the margins, where we encounter the religious other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 213g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 230 x 157 x 11 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781793619693\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Allen G.
