Description and Table of Contents
Description
David Tonghou Ngong offers a comprehensive view of African Christian thought that includes North Africa in antiquity as well as Sub-Saharan Africa from the period of colonial missionary activity to the present. Challenging conventional colonial divisions of Africa, A New History of African Christian Thought demonstrates that important continuities exist across the continent. Chapters written by specialists in African Christian thought reflect the issues-both ancient and modern-in which Christian Africa has impacted the shape of Christian belief from the beginning of the movement up to the present day.
