It draws attention to a number of key issues, including the translatability of the Christian faith, the process of contextualization in various cultures, the place and role of indigenous agencies, the global impact of contemporary African Christian expressions, its influence on ecumenical relations and inter-religious encounters, and its way of shaping new religious identities and landscapes in response to power relations and artificial boundaries. Topics covered include the concept of diaspora, deconstructing colonial mission, conversion, African cosmologies, African retentions, female leadership dynamics, liberation theology, a new discourse around HIV/AIDS, transnational religious networks, pentecostal/charismatic movements, charismatic renewal within former mission churches, dynamics of reverse mission, outreach via cyberspace, specific studies on Anglican, Baptist, Adventist and Kimbanguist missions, and the need for intercultural and interdenominational bridge building. -- Back cover. 000926570 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000926570 650_0 $$aChristianity$$zAfrica$$vCongresses. 000926570 650_0 $$aAfrican diaspora$$vCongresses. 000926570 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xReligion$$vCongresses. 000926570 7001_ $$aAdogame, Afeosemime U.$$q(Afeosemime Unuose),$$d1964-$$eeditor. 000926570 7001_ $$aGerloff, Roswith I.
