Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compelling account of how Andean Christians have inculturated the Gospel and the challenges that confront them provides a real-world view of the urgent process of inculturation. In the context of pluri-cultural development of the church, this process is one that affirms that both culture and history are transformed by the Spirit of God.

It also discusses current evangelization trends worldwide, examining negative as well as positive examples of inculturation, and offers guidelines for future efforts.

Book Synopsis Inculturation in Pastoral Care of the Sick by : Kenneth Nwokolo
Download or read book Inculturation in Pastoral Care of the Sick written by Kenneth Nwokolo and published by Lit Verlag. This book was released on 2002 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " For most African Christians, the concept of healing set up by the Church does not reflect or acknowledge their views and experiences of sickness and healing. Inculturation in pastoral care of the sick is an attempt to recognise and possibly integrate African spirituality and worldview into the liturgical practice of anointing and pastoral care of the sick. Anointing and pastoral care of the sick can become more meaningful and beneficial to African Christians when it is structured to address questions of sickness and healing as experienced by Christians in their respective cultural backgrounds. Kenneth Nwokolo was born in Obibi Orlu, Nigeria in 1963. He obtained his B.Ph and B.Th at Bigard Memorial Seminary Ikot Ekpene and Enugu in 1986 and 1990 respectively, with a doctorate in Theology in 2002 from the University of Bonn. In addition to his work in some parishes, he has had practical experiences with pastoral care of the sick in both home and hospital. "

Download or read book Anointing of the Sick and the Healing Ministry written by Austin Echema and published by Iko. This book was released on 2006 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through its practice of healing down the ages the Church has been able to inculturate the Christian message, but not without the risks of the manipulation' of the divine power which have gone with these practices. Throughout its long history anointing of the sick has almost constantly oscillated between physical and spiritual effects. This book critically examines the manifold practices of healing which flourish today in our midst especially in Nigeria. It emphasizes the teaching of the Church on healing and the healing power of the sacraments and proposes the inculturation of the ritual of anointing the sick that will be truly Christian and authentically African.

He studied philosophy and theology in Bigard Memorial Seminary Ikot Ekpene (now St. Joseph's) and Enugu respectively and obtained his doctorate in theology from the Hochschule Sankt Georgen, Frankfurt/Main (Germany).

Book Synopsis Inculturation and Postcolonial Discourse in African Theology by : Edward P. Antonio
Download or read book Inculturation and Postcolonial Discourse in African Theology written by Edward P. Antonio and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2006 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is inculturation? How is it practiced and what is its relationship to colonial and postcolonial discourses? In what ways, if any, does inculturation represent the decolonization of Christianity in Africa? This book explores these questions and argues that inculturation is a species of postcolonial discourse by placing it in the larger context of what has now come to be known as Africanism and by showing how the latter - and through it inculturation itself - fully participates in the history of postcolonial struggles for indigenous self-definition in Africa. The thirteen contributors to this volume represent a group of young scholars from the southern, eastern, and western regions of Africa. They come from different disciplines: theology, philosophy, and biblical studies. Although they take different approaches to the question of inculturation, the fact that they engage it at all is illustrative of the methodological significance of inculturation in African theology.

Book Synopsis Culture, Inculturation, and Theologians by : Gerald A. Arbuckle
Download or read book Culture, Inculturation, and Theologians written by Gerald A. Arbuckle and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The split between the Gospel and culture is without doubt the drama of our time," wrote Paul VI in 1975. Since that time there has been an increasingly urgent awareness that inculturation is an indispensable task of the church. But inculturation, the dialogue between church and cultures, demands first of all that we who would enter into the dialogue understand what "culture" itself means and what dialogue entails. To that end, cultural anthropologist Father Gerald Arbuckle gives us this important volume. He traces the history of the development of the concept of culture, and the too-often negative, rarely positive effects of encounters between church and culture. He explores how Jesus Christ approached the cultures of his time, and outlines the current treatment of culture and inculturation in church documents and in Catholic theology. He shows that modest progress in understanding has recently staled, and there are even forces working to turn that progress into regress. He concludes with a description of inculturation as it needs to happen 'and a sharp critique of those who resist. With a sense of prophetic hope, Arbuckle seeks to help us bridge the lamentable split between Gospel and culture, the drama that continues to unfold in our time.

Book Synopsis Healing in the Nigerian Church by : Chinọnyelu Moses Ugwu
Download or read book Healing in the Nigerian Church written by Chinọnyelu Moses Ugwu and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research work shows that «Healing in the church» which is found in different African countries could be better understood from the traditional African religious world-view. Using the Igbo of Nigeria as an example, the author suggests that some problems attributed to one cause or another in traditional African society might be psychological or psychosomatic in nature. Elements of a belief system can be used as means of expressing some underlying psychosocial conflicts. Psychological problems and conflicts are general human problems that could be found in any culture, but their expressions, manifestations and actualizations depend on the culture concerned. Experiences of Psychotherapy in Africa have shown that Therapists need to be familiar with the cultural features of the patients' lives in order to recognize the psychosocial problems behind the physical complaints of the patients. Only in this way can they resolve most of the problems termed «spiritual» cases. These findings are also very relevant for theology and pastoral practice in African countries.

Book Synopsis Resolving the Prevailing Conflicts Between Christianity and African (Igbo) Traditional Religion Through Inculturation by : Edwin Anaegboka Udoye
Download or read book Resolving the Prevailing Conflicts Between Christianity and African (Igbo) Traditional Religion Through Inculturation written by Edwin Anaegboka Udoye and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2011 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For not integrating initially some of the good elements in Igbo culture, many Igbo Christians have double personality - Christian personality and traditional personality. They are Christians on Sundays but traditionalists on weekdays. To combat such an anomalous situation, in imitation of Christ's effort at completing what was lacking in the Jewish religion, author Edwin Udoye proposes radical inculturation. His book equally contains many serious theological reflections such that it recommends itself to both theologians and the scholars researching on the religions of the world. Udoye has therefore made a very significant contribution worthy of commendation to both theological and religious studies.
