  abstract = {{B}ased on the cross-referencing of ethnographic materials collected in {F}iji and {V}anuatu, this article explores the diverse ways faith and climate change are connected together and how these connections are sustained and transformed over time. {I}t does so through the prism of three 'practices of assemblage' identified by {T}ania {M}urray {L}i, namely forging alignments, authorising knowledge, and reassembling. {I}t emphasises the partnership and combined efficacy of faith-based organisations and the {B}ible in these practices, while revealing the role of various other actants including {G}od, {NGO}s, youth activists, cyclones, a {N}i-{V}anuatu canoe, and {F}iji's {P}residency of {COP}23. {T}his approach highlights the coexistence, in both {F}iji and {V}anuatu, of a religiously informed and adaptation-oriented environmental stewardship narrative, stressing human responsibility in the face of climate change, with a counter-narrative considering climate change as {G}od's business. {T}his coexistence sometimes creates tensions between worldly and religious responses to climate change. {T}hese different religious perspectives of climate change can also be deployed as a political resource in nation-building processes, regional power relations, and international climate negotiations. {I}n {O}ceania indeed, climate change appears as a new arena in which the inextricable entanglement of {C}hristianity and politics is revealed.},
