Talk:Contextual theology

I feel like we need to change this to contextualization (missionary), and include both missiological things, and also biblical translation. This is a great topic and deserves a lot more attention. Xphilosopherking (talk) 01:31, 16 February 2015 (UTC)


 * However, the challenge here is that "contextualizing theology," as coined by Coe, was not meant to be a missionary activity. It was what locals do for their own theology. It may include an evangelistic or biblical translation aspect, but this is not central to it. --Caorongjin (talk) 20:05, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

Contextualizing theology → Contextual theology – This is a more dominant usage of the term, although it was originally termed "contextualising theology" by Shoki Coe in the 1970s Caorongjin (talk) 16:28, 29 September 2017 (UTC)


 * Support per nom. See for example 3330 ghits vs 130,000 ghits (your results may vary). The first few pages of hits look relevant in both cases. Andrewa (talk) 13:15, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
