Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pioneering study of Australian, New Zealand, and Pacific Christianity opens up new perspectives on Christianization and modernization in this richly complex region. The reception of Christianity into Pacific cultures has produced strongly Christian societies. Based on research in widely scattered archives, this book not only deals with regional interactions but pays careful attention to developments in microstates, and to the variety of indigenous religious movements, which were earlier regarded as deviations from Christian orthodoxy but are now seen as significant adaptations of Christian teaching. In Australia and New Zealand too, European Christian beginnings have been given local emphases, producing Churches with distinctive identities. Lay leadership is emphasized - not only in the Churches but as part of the Christian presence in the realms of politics, business, and culture. The broad liturgical, theological, constitutional, and pastoral developments of the 19th and 20th centuries are mapped, as a context for the striking changes which have taken place since the 1960s. The dynamics of religious change and conflict, the ambiguities of religious authority, and the destructive effects of Christian colonialism on indigenous communities, especially Australian aborigines, are all frankly dealt with. The decline of the institutional impact of the Churches in Australia and New Zealand is explored, as is the growth of partnership between government and Churches in education, social welfare, and overseas aid and development. Interchange in personnel and ideas is strikingly illustrated in the missionary activities of the regional Churches and their cultural impact. The author's involvement in Church and community leadership, ecumenism, and theological education makes this volume in The Oxford History of the Christian Church a valuable addition to the series, describing both continuities with world Christianity and little-known local developments.
Download or read book Out of the Silence written by Lynne Strahan and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1988 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founded in 1888, Australia's Anglican Community of the Holy Name order has administered schools, hospitals, a girls' reformatory, orphanages, and an inner-city mission throughout its charitable empire, which stretches from its Melbourne base to New South Wales, South Australia, New Guinea, and New Zealand. But behind the edifice of social welfare, a profounder, more mysterious reality has inspired the order's members, a commitment to the "hidden life...a life of astonishing simplicity, of almost, by the world's standards, scandalous unreason." This oral history of the Community draws on its members' personal accounts to explore its history and present-day realities: the struggles to cope with inner and outer change, confront the dualities of existence, and define its role in an increasingly materialistic world. The book also deals with the part played by this order and others in attempting to clarify and advance the role of women in the ministry.

Download or read book Te H hi Mihinare The M ori Anglican Church written by Hirini Kaa and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2020-09-12 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arrival of the Anglican Church with its claims to religious power was soon followed by British imperial claims to temporal power. Political, legal, economic and social institutions were designed to be the bastions of control across the British Empire. However, they were also places of contestation and engagement at a local and national level, and this was true of New Zealand. Māori culture was constantly capable of adaptation in the face of changing contexts. This ground-breaking book explores the emergence of Te Hāhi Mihinare – the Māori Anglican Church. Anglicanism, brought to New Zealand by English missionaries in 1814, was made widely known by Māori evangelists, as iwi adapted the religion to make it their own. The ways in which Mihinare (Māori Anglicans) engaged with the settler Anglican Church in New Zealand and created their own unique Church casts light on the broader question of how Māori interacted with and transformed European culture and institutions. Hirini Kaa vividly describes the quest for a Māori Anglican bishop, the translation into te reo of the prayer book, and the development of a distinctive Māori Anglican ministry for today’s world. Te Hāhi Mihinare uncovers a rich history that enhances our understanding of New Zealand’s past.
