Engaging Religions and Worldviews in Africa

Autor Yusufu Turaki
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2020
In a world of increasing globalization, we live amidst a clash of cultures, religions, and worldviews - each battling for the human heart and mind. In this in-depth study, Yusufu Turaki offers a theological framework for engaging this clash of perspectives in Africa, where traditional African religions, colonialism, and exposure to Christianity have each had a lasting impact on contemporary African worldviews. Professor Turaki undertakes a systematic analysis of the nature of African Traditional Religion, its complex history with Christianity, and the need for African Christian theology to address its cultural and historical roots effectively. He provides both a conceptual framework and practical guide for engaging African cultures and religions with compassion, understanding, and a firm foundation rooted in scriptural truth. This book is an excellent resource for students of religion and theology, as well as those interested in Africa's traditional heritage or drawn to the important work of cross-cultural and inter-religious dialogue.
