This book was released on 2014 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since evangelical Christianity arrived in Wa in the 1940s, church planters have used different methods in their attempts to start churches. Some of the churches that were planted later died. Others have remained, but are small and weak. Few seem active and growing. Moreover, the Waala ethnic group has remained predominantly Islamic though attempts have been made to evangelize them. Many of the churches in the Wa area have majority of their congregations as non-Waala. The reasons for the inability to evangelize the Waala for the past seven decades have remained a puzzle. Some Christians have concluded that the Waala are unreachable and should be ignored. Others seem discouraged to attempt further church planting among them. An effort to effectively reach the Waala then requires a careful research into church-planting methods for evangelizing the Waala. Researching into methods that have been used and those that are being used will unveil the secret for successfully planting churches among them. Moreover, understanding the culture of the Waala removes stumbling blocks that have inhibited church planters from effectively evangelizing them. Cultural ignorance has the tendency of offending the very people the church planter is seeking to win for Christ. Hence, this dissertation will provide the thinking pattern and cultural mindset of the Waala. - Abstract.

Download or read book Odwira and the Gospel written by Frank Kwesi Adams and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the Odwira festival is the key to the understanding of Asante religious and political life in Ghana. The book explores the nature of the Odwira festival longitudinally--in pre-colonial, colonial and post-independence Ghana--and examines the Odwira ideology and its implications for understanding the Asante self-identity. The book also discusses how some elements of faith portrayed in the Odwira festival could provide a framework for Christianity to engage with Asante culture at a greater depth. Theological themes in Asante belief that have emerged from this study include the theology of sacrament, ecclesiology, eschatology, Christology and a complex concept of time. The author argues that Asante cultural identity lies at the heart of the process by which the Asante Christian faith is carried forward.
Download or read book Transmitting the Spirit in Missions written by Amos Jimmy Markin and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transmitting the Spirit in Missions: The History and Growth of the Church of Pentecost discourses on how Pentecostalism in general has been involved in the current growth, mission, and changing face of global Christianity. It argues that African Pentecostals particularly are an integral part of the global expansion of Christianity in this century. Specifically, this book engages the history and growth of the Church of Pentecost, an African Pentecostal denomination from Ghana, to demonstrate how African Pentecostals have taken their spirituality into their own hands and planted churches in their home country, as well as other parts of the globe. The focus of this book is that African Pentecostals have achieved this feat through the experiential power and reliance of the Holy Spirit and the indigenous factor. The specific highlight is that this book is an updated analysis of the history, growth, and missions of the Church of Pentecost. Although this work is transformed from a PhD thesis, the content is presented accessibly to both the academia and general church populace, both pastors and the laity.
