NAIITS Journals
“[We] will be well satisfied if people tell [us] that they are convinced or still remain skeptical about what [is said], because at least they have tested the arguments against the Scriptures and their own experience of life.”
Andrew Kirk. Good News of the Kingdom Coming. Downers Grove, Intervarsity Press. 1983
Volume 6*
A reprint of articles and presentations from the first five symposia this volume is also a reflection of a journey of theological discovery – one that predates the very first symposium by perhaps a century or more, capturing much that is represented in the evolving vision of the World Christian Gathering of Indigenous Peoples.
*Dedicated to Monte Ohia and his gift of letting all of us feel as if we owned the vision they gave life to, made possible through us, great endeavours for God.

Volume 5
Our theme in this issue of the journal focuses our attention on biblical reconciliation and restoration – true redemption – the promise of life to the full.
Volume 4
In this issue we explore several historical efforts at contextual theology, missiology and the practice of church. In this issue, we are clearly walking backward into the future!
Volume 3
In this issue we examine the purpose of education and its role in shaping the thinking and responses of Native believers to the community, its issues and the wider mission field.
Volume 2
This issue of the journal points up the fact that while much has been accomplished, much remains to be done to position Native North American Christians where they ought to be within the wider church and within missions.
Volume 1
In this inaugural volume of the journal of NAIITS, we explore the continuing and often frustrating conversations around culture and faith that arose again in the latter 15 years or so of the twentieth century. Our focus is on a re-visitation of the linkages between culture and Christian faith.
