In an era defined by the globalized nature of mission, the church is no longer viewed as the sender but as the one being sent, reflecting the <i>missio Dei</i> framework. The article explores the role of the Nicene Creed in light of current shifts in mission: the dissolution of a binary view of Christian and non-Christian worlds, the inherently missionary nature of the church, and the importance of partnerships in mission. From a decolonized perspective, the author questions the ongoing relevance of the trinitarian God as professed in the creed, particularly within the diverse ecclesiastical landscape of Southern Africa, where independent churches are prominent. The article argues that the Nicene Creed, while not explicitly missional, remains foundational to the church's mission as it affirms the church's unity, catholicity, and apostolicity. In conclusion, the article advocates for a continued reflection on the Nicene Creed, recognizing its central role in shaping the mission, faith, and unity of the church, particularly in a decolonized and ecumenical context.</p>","PeriodicalId":54038,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Mission","volume":"113 2","pages":"311-323"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/irom.12505","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143253878","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing the account of an early encounter, the story of “Black Nobbie Neville,” published in late 1890, this paper examines the attitudes of early Salvationists toward Aboriginal people. The narrative provides a useful tool to contrast and compare with other early Australian Salvation Army writings in considering whether the attitudes, stereotypes, and language used in the account of Nobbie Neville was consistent with a wider mentality of The Salvation Army of the early 20th century. Further, it opens the discussion on whether these views influenced and continue to influence the place of Aboriginal Salvationists in Australia.</p>","PeriodicalId":54038,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Mission","volume":"113 2","pages":"421-435"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143253887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It explores the Creed not just as a theological concept but also as a tool that has influenced both ecumenical unity and hegemonic power dynamics, especially in Indigenous and colonial encounters. After outlining the Creed's role in settling debates about the nature of the relationship between the Father and the Son, while acknowledging the Creed's later global and liturgical adoption, the article critically examines the interaction between the Nicene Creed and Indigenous faith traditions. It then reflects on a possible continuity between African traditional religions and the Christian faith, focusing on the relationship of the Father and the Son. The article concludes that creeds need to be continuously reinterpreted in diverse cultural contexts and the ecumenical fellowship and advocates for a more nuanced approach to the apostolic faith, where the Nicene Creed becomes a decolonizing tool, allowing Indigenous theological perspectives to reshape how the Christian faith interacts not only with local traditions but also with the modern world. Ultimately, the article calls for an ongoing reflection on the triune God's self-revelation to avoid the hardening of confessions as witness into creeds as a colonizing and excluding tool.</p>","PeriodicalId":54038,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Mission","volume":"113 2","pages":"341-354"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143253872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rooted in a missiological framework, it examines the transformative potential of Luke 4:18 in addressing the challenges faced by marginalized communities in the SDA context. The article draws on findings from earlier qualitative research on historical roots, missiological perspectives, and the relevance of biblical passages to inform a narrative inquiry approach on the hermeneutics of Luke 4:18. By aligning the text with complementary passages, it delves into the historical trajectory of caste discrimination within SDA churches and revisits the contemporary challenges faced by marginalized members. This article highlights the crucial roles of church leadership and educational initiatives in fostering inclusivity and combatting discrimination by integrating a hermeneutical lens into actionable strategies. Finally, it contributes to ongoing discussions on social justice and equality in religious communities, offering a nuanced perspective informed by both qualitative insights and hermeneutical exploration.</p>","PeriodicalId":54038,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Mission","volume":"113 2","pages":"436-450"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143253873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Darkness was constructed as evil and dangerous and in need of illumination. The construction of darkness and Africa as the dark continent was embraced by Western philosophical thinkers who popularized this thinking that the same construction continues to reproduce itself globally. Using the medium of a childhood game, played on a farm with little artificial lighting, thinking of darkness takes a completely different turn to the colonially constructed image of darkness. Using a reimagination and reinterpretation of darkness, this article embraces darkness as the space of seeing, of entertainment, of observation and appreciation of that which is often blinded by artificial – colonial – lights or illumination. This article challenges, disrupts, decolonizes the colonial construction of darkness and reclaims darkness and calls for the liberation and embrace of darkness in the manner of reading the Bible or imagining mission.

By examining the colonial history of Indigenous people and Black chattel slaves in North America, this paper will show how the contemporary definitions of race and disability are inherited social constructs created for the colonizer's utility to control the bodies and minds of those occupying and working the land the colonizer seeks to control for the private accumulation of imperial wealth. I will give examples of how socio-cultural institutions like the church have inherited the logic of colonialism, creating ideologies of domination that must be challenged by a robust decolonial theology.

Decoloniality is distinguished from postcolonialism to reveal its relevance for the subject matter and identify its method.
