Many African countries have gone through serious social crises in the post-colonial period: genocide, post-election crises, civil and internal conflicts, and outright war. Forgiveness and reconciliation have been necessary to reweave the social fabric and restart the construction of peaceful and prosperous societies. Chapters in this book examine the Truth and Reconciliation Commissions and religious councils aimed at peace, along with African traditional approaches, mediation and arbitration councils, post-conflict contexts, and the roles of women and gender, philosophy and theology, and programs of education for peace.

Download or read book Luyia Nation written by Shadrack Amakoye Bulimo and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04-04 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unbeknownst to most, the Luyia Nation is a congeries of Bantu and assimilated Nilotic clans principally the Luo, Kalenjin, and Maasai. Created seventy years ago, the Luyia tribe is still evolving in a slow process that seeks to harmonize the historico-cultural institutions that define the eighteen subnations in Kenya alone. Available records indicate that geophysical spread of Luyia-speaking people extends beyond the Kenyan frontier into Uganda and Tanzania with some Luyia clans having extant brethren in Rwanda, Congo, Zambia, and Cameroon. The 862 Luyia clans in Kenya are amorphous units united only by common cultural and linguistic bonds. The political union between these clans is a pesky issue that has eluded the community since formation of the superethnic polity. Although postindependence scholars dismissed oral accounts of Egyptian ancestry, new anthropological evidence links the Bantu, including those in West Africa, to ancient Misri (Egypt). A major historical and cultural change in Buluyia occurred a little more than a century ago when natives first made contact with the Western world. The meeting in 1883 by a Scottish explorer, Joseph Thomson, with Nabongo Mumia, the Wanga king, laid the foundation for British imperialism in this part of Africa.

Download or read book A Religion with Gaps written by Andrew Ratanya Mukaria and published by Andrew Ratanya Mukaria. This book was released on 2022-04-21 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The challenges facing contemporary Îembe Christianity are similar to those that the young Greco-Roman Christians faced. For the Greco-Roman, the challenge was trying to appropriate the gospel in an understandable and authentic way for the locals as far as Christianity was concerned. In Îembe, the church has to try to integrate some cultural values within Christianity so that the Îembe would view it as an Îembe religion and as part of the universal religion instead of a foreign one. This book mainly focuses on the Îembe community, a sub-group of the Meru tribe in Kenya. It centres on understanding how Îembe spirituality has been a challenge to Christianity, especially as far as healing, health and wholeness, calamities, and witchcraft are concerned. It is also in this perspective that the office of traditional healers is studied. To reach an understanding, integration and interpretation, the author presents views and perspectives from the local context. Andrew presents a missiological Christological view with Jesus as Muwe par excellence. This is an aspect whereby Jesus takes the central position as a healer in the Îembe community. If restoration and healing are God’s activities, with an eschatological impact, then God is the healer, and the church is an element of the Missio Dei. Healing is, therefore, a missio ecclesiae activity. The church in Christ has taken the central stage as Muwe par excellence, a principle that churches in Îembe should dwell on, teach and practice.

Download or read book Historical and Social Dimensions in African Christian Theology written by Wilson Muoha Maina and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African Christian theology has been developing for the last four decades. The trend has been to focus on traditional African religions as a foundation for Christian theology. While acknowledging the importance of African traditional religions to Christian theology in Africa, this study argues that African history progressively changes, and it is these changed and changing circumstances that theology is to address. This work analyzes issues affecting Africa today and shows the social and political role that Christianity has to play in an African context. This study views enculturation as a dialogue among African Christians, their history and culture, and Christian teachings. Theological approaches such as anthropological, liberation, and historical are analyzed from the perspective of Small Christian Communities (SCCs), which are a recent development in African Christianity. SCCs are presented as a concrete hermeneutical tool in theological analyses. Further, this work acknowledges the indispensable need for an authentic African Christology in an African Christian theology. While critical of contemporary African Christology, the study also suggests issues to be considered in the development of African Christology.
