McGarrah Sharp. 330 $aMultiple forms of oppression, injustice, and violence today have roots in histories of colonialism. This connection to the past feels familiar for some and less relevant for others. Understanding and responding to these connections is more crucial than ever, yet some resist rather than face this task directly. Others resist oppressive postcolonial conditions. Using intercultural stories and pastoral care scholarship, this book charts pathways through five resistances (not me, not here, not now, not relevant, not possible) to awaken creative pastoral care in a postcolonial world. McGarrah Sharp recommends practices that everyone can do: believing in each other, revisiting how histories are taught, imagining more passable futures, heeding prophetic poets, and crossing borders with healthy boundaries. 410 0$aTheology in Practice. 606 $aPastoral care 606 $aPostcolonial theology 606 $aPostmodernism$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 615 0$aPastoral care. 615 0$aPostcolonial theology. 615 0$aPostmodernism$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 676 $a253 700 $aMcGarrah Sharp$b Melinda A.$01554316 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793986703321 996 $aCreating resistances: pastoral care in a postcolonial world$93815487 997 $aUNINA
