Beskrivning
Wealth, Health, and Hope in African Christian Religion offers a portrait of how contending narratives of modernity in both church and society play out in Africa today through the agency of African Christian religion. It explores the identity and features of African Christian religion and the cultural forces driving the momentum of Christian expansion in Africa, as well as how these factors are shaping a new African social imagination, especially in providing answers to the most challenging questions about poverty, wealth, health, human, and cosmic flourishing. It offers the academy a good road map for interpreting African Christian religious beliefs and practices today and into the future.

Recensioner i media

This volume is a rich repository of fresh research on African Christianity. It offers valuable new readings of religion in Africa, missions history, and the relationship between Africa and the West. More than this, the volume invites a reinterpretation of global Christianity that restores Africa to its rightfully prominent role in the historical narrative. This is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand Africa or global Christianity.
