Who is the "Other"? In a culturally and religiously diverse world, how can the church build just relationships with the "Other" without compromising each party’s unique identity?
In Relation without Relation, the author presents intercultural theology as a decolonizing approach to mission practice. He employs key concepts from Emmanuel Levinas, Jacques Derrida, and Homi Bhabha to provide a philosophical foundation. He advocates for an "Altruistic Model" of interfaith dialogue, which enriches missiology and mission practices, aiming to cultivate an intercultural church.
Relation without Relation offers valuable resources for churches seeking to become intercultural and to practice mission alongside others, whether they are people of faith or not. While sustaining identities, participants create a welcoming third space where genuine dialogue occurs, fostering shared concern for justice.
