Book excerpt: Comme les Églises des grandes métropoles orientales, celle de Carthage aura particulièrement illustré les premiers siècles du christianisme. Sans doute même fut-elle la plus marquante des chrétientés d'Occident. C'est d'abord par ses martyrs que cette Église tient une place majeure dans l'histoire du christianisme. C'est grâce aussi à sa tradition conciliaire, facteur de cohésion dans le collège épiscopal et entre les communautés implantées des rivages méditerranéens aux marges du Sahara. C'est grâce enfin à ses représentants, les plus éminents de ce temps, Tertullien, Cyprien de Carthage, Augustin d'Hippone. Unanimes, les Églises chrétiennes se réclament toujours de ces Africains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adam, le premier homme, était-il Africain ? Que penser du caractère africain de Moïse ? Le message chrétien peut-il être réinterprété d'une perspective africaine ? Par cet ouvrage, l'auteur convie à une réflexion sur la parenté historique du christianisme avec les croyancers traditionnelles d'Afrique. Il y est question de l'appropriation de cette religion en contexte africain. Ce premier volume n'est cependant pas qu'un ouvrage d'histoire des civilisations. Il en va de la compréhension d'éléments religieux et des rapports historiques qui existent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African Christianity is not an imported religion but rather one of the oldest forms of Christianity in the world. In The Kingdom of God in Africa, Mark Shaw and Wanjiru M. Gitau trace the development and spread of African Christianity through its two-thousand year history, demonstrating how the African church has faithfully testified to the power and diversity of God’s kingdom. Both history students and casual readers will gain greater understanding of how key churches, figures and movements across the continent conceptualized the kingdom of God and manifested it through their actions. The only up-to- date, single-volume study of its kind, this book also includes maps and statistics that aid readers to absorb the rich history of African Christianity and discover its impact on the rest of the world.

Book excerpt: L'Afrique, bien que marginalisée sur la scène internationale, demeure un continent riche de traditions culturelles et religieuses et, au XXe siècle, le christianisme y connaît une croissance sans précédent. Mais cette Pentecôte africaine ne doit pas masquer les faiblesses du christianisme dans ce continent. Un défi majeur reste à relever : celui d'un dialogue foi/culture qui aide l'homme africain à vivre intimement sa foi sans aliéner son identité - et lui assure les conditions d'un épanouissement global dans son milieu de vie.

Download or read book The God in Us written by Hlumelo Biko and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-07 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the unitary source of all of the world’s major religions. The book underscores the fact that there are many ways in which humanity has sought revelation of God, yet there is a common inspiration behind humanity’s God concept. The author’s analysis of world religions or faiths adopts a multi-interdisciplinary approach taking the reader through historical, anthropological, archaeological, and theological viewpoints to make juxtapositions. God in us is a rich resource that helps the readers understand the origins of human civilisation and how humans began to worship God, domesticate animals like sheep, invent astrology and create languages. Biko’s research also delves deeper into unveiling African indigenous knowledge systems and science that predate the arrival of the colonisers on the African soil.

Download or read book Religion and Poverty written by Peter J. Paris and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2009-11-25 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Ghanaian scholar of religion argues that poverty is a particularly complex subject in traditional African cultures, where holistic worldviews unite life’s material and spiritual dimensions. A South African ethicist examines informal economies in Ghana, Jamaica, Kenya, and South Africa, looking at their ideological roots, social organization, and vulnerability to global capital. African American theologians offer ethnographic accounts of empowering religious rituals performed in churches in the United States, Jamaica, and South Africa. This important collection brings together these and other Pan-African perspectives on religion and poverty in Africa and the African diaspora. Contributors from Africa and North America explore poverty’s roots and effects, the ways that experiences and understandings of deprivation are shaped by religion, and the capacity and limitations of religion as a means of alleviating poverty. As part of a collaborative project, the contributors visited Ghana, Kenya, and South Africa, as well as Jamaica and the United States. In each location, they met with clergy, scholars, government representatives, and NGO workers, and they examined how religious groups and community organizations address poverty. Their essays complement one another. Some focus on poverty, some on religion, others on their intersection, and still others on social change. A Jamaican scholar of gender studies decries the feminization of poverty, while a Nigerian ethicist and lawyer argues that the protection of human rights must factor into efforts to overcome poverty. A church historian from Togo examines the idea of poverty as a moral virtue and its repercussions in Africa, and a Tanzanian theologian and priest analyzes ujamaa, an African philosophy of community and social change. Taken together, the volume’s essays create a discourse of mutual understanding across linguistic, religious, ethnic, and national boundaries. Contributors. Elizabeth Amoah, Kossi A.

Download or read book Eglises chr tiennes et tats nations en Afrique written by Vincent Sosthène Fouda and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2005 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Politique et religion voilà deux concepts de sciences politiques profondément enracinés en Afrique Noire. Pour l'Occident, c'est un labyrinthe par lequel il faut passer pour saisir à la fois l'âme africaine et la société dans son ensemble, aussi n'est-il pas superflu de penser qu'ici tout se voile et se dévoile dans la politique et la religion, fût-ce à notre insu. A partir d'un cas particulier, le Cameroun, Vincent Sosthène Fouda a refait le parcours théologico-politique de l'Afrique Noire, depuis la rencontre de ce continent aux Religions Traditionnelles (RT) multiples avec les religions monothéistes que sont l'Islam et le Christianisme. L'auteur porte sur les fonts baptismaux un nouveau concept de sciences politiques, celui des Etats-nations tri-confessionnels au sein desquels la politique et la religion entretiennent des relations quasi maritales. Tout y passe, adultère, inceste, infidélité, trahison mais et surtout fidélité. Pour l'auteur, l'Afrique ne se réalisera pleinement qu'en acceptant la tri-confessionnalité de ses Etats-Nations et en se démarquant du concept importé d' " Etat laïc " qui ne correspond à aucune réalité sociologico-politique dans le continent noir. Au moment où se développent dans certaines parties du monde des intégrismes et fondamentalismes politico-religieux, n'est-il pas temps de regarder sous un angle nouveau cette tri-confessionnalité et accepter qu'elle marque les structures et les grandes catégories de notre culture politique.
Download or read book Trajectories of Religion in Africa written by Cephas N. Omenyo and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book, in the main, discusses issues relating to mission, ecumenism, and theological education and is presented in four sections. The first segment discusses works on ecumenical and theological education and assesses the relevance of the World Council of Churches. Other issues discussed in this segment relate to the interrelationships that exist between academic theology, ecumenism, and Christianity. The World Missionary Conference held in Edinburgh in 1910, which set the agenda for world-wide mission in a promising manner in the 1920s, is also assessed in this section of the work. The second segment, which covers Religion and Public Space, discusses works that examine the relationships between religion and power, religion and development, religion and traditional religious beliefs, and religion and practices in Africa. The third segment of the book treats Religion and Cultural Practices in African and how all these work out in couching out an African theology and African Christianity. Some of the issues discussed in this section related to African traditional philosophy, spiritism, and the interrelationships that exist between African Christianity and African Traditional Religion. The last segment of the book discusses the issue of African biblical hermeneutics and specifically looks at contemporary hermeneutical approaches to biblical interpretations in Africa.
