Kristine Suna-Koro is Associate Professor of Theology at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. She is a Latvian-American diasporic theologian working at the intersection of postcolonialism, liturgical and sacramental studies as well as migration and diaspora discourses. As a Lutheran pastor she has served the diasporic Latvian Lutheran communities in Great Britain, Germany, and the United States.
Kristine Suna-Koro does phenomenal work reading the sacraments
through postcolonial lenses. Keeping a complex language, she gives
us one of the best gifts a theologian can offer: the work of the
imagination! Grounded in expansive postcolonial theory and solid
sacramental theology, Suna-Koro shows how the theological
imagination, when done from a diasporic place, can challenge and
expand the ways we think about​ God. Echoing Aidan Kavanagh, by way
of the Baltic Sea, Suna-Koro issues a call for us to consider
sacramental theology as theologia prima.
