CHURCH MATTERS PODCAST: EPISODE 107: TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION COMMISSION SUMMONS CHURCHES 


GUEST: STEVE HEINRICHS, DIRECTOR MC CANADA INDIGENOUS RELATIONS  


https://www.commonword.ca/ResourceView/82/18430 

Wrongs to Rights Came out of the 2015 Retreat

Honouring the call of Indigenous peoples from around the world, Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission has specifically summoned, not only the State, but all churches to embrace the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. But what is the Declaration? And how might it gift and reorient Christian faith and practice?  In Wrongs to Rights, over 40 authors from diverse backgrounds – Indigenous and Settler, Christian and Traditional – wrestle with the meaning of the Declaration for the Church. 


With a firm hold on past and present colonialism, the authors tackle key questions that the Declaration and the TRC’s call to “adopt and comply” raises: What are its potential implications? How does it connect to Scripture? Can it facilitate genuine decolonization, or is “rights talk” another form of imperialism? And what about real life relationships? Can the Declaration be lived out – collectively and personally – on the ground?  


Short articles combined with poetry and visual arts provide a rich, engaging and accessible resource for individual and group conversation in 164 pages. A study guide is included.  


You may also wish to purchase the TRC Calls to Action and UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples: A Resource for Churches booklet, available separately.
