Faith, Spirituality, and Praxis: Exploring Dynamics in African Grassroot Theologies and Churches

English

African grassroots theologies and churches are expressions of the faith, spirituality, and praxis of African Christians who seek to articulate and live out their Christian identity and mission in their diverse and complex contexts. These include African Initiated Churches (AICs), black theology movements, liberation theology movements, and other forms of contextual and indigenous theologies and ecclesiologies that emerge from the experiences and struggles of African Christians. This volume addresses such questions as:

  • How do African grassroots theologies and churches reflect and respond to the challenges and opportunities of their socio-political, economic, cultural, and religious contexts?
  • How do African grassroots theologies and churches engage with the historical and contemporary expressions of Christianity in Africa and beyond, such as colonial and 2 missionary Christianity, ecumenical Christianity, global Christianity, and interreligious dialogue?
  • How do African grassroots theologies and churches develop and communicate their theological and ethical perspectives and practices on issues such as justice, liberation, reconciliation, healing, development, ecology, gender, sexuality, culture, and spirituality?
  • How do African grassroots theologies and churches shape and challenge the forms and functions of the church in Africa, such as worship, leadership, ministry, mission, evangelism, discipleship, fellowship, and social action?

This volume is important for those in African Studies, Religious Studies, African Theologies, and African Christianity. This is also an important book for those professionals working in interfaith dialogues, missionary work, and community development within African contexts.
