Starting with a description of religious healing, the text develops a theological model within which the experience can be articulated in terms of the Church's mission to heal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of Prophetic Theology, of Black theology, of African Theology, of Coping/Healing Churches and of a Pastoral Plan in the catholic Church are five contextual manifestations of a single process in which the Church is rooting itself in the South African soil thus moving from being a settler-mission Church to a local Church. The first part of the study is an attempt to present a description of each of the five cited phenomena as they are manifesting themselves within the South African context. The second part of the study attempt to interpret these phenomena in terms of a theological hermeneutic key. The author examines two interpretative keys: that of Contextualisation and that of Inculturation. The study shows that both models can be used to reveal complementary conclusions for Evangelisation in the South African context.

Book excerpt: Although Africa is today often seen, because of its large number of Christians, as the future hope of the Church, a closer examination of African Christianity, however, shows that the Christian faith has not taken deep root in Africa. Many Africans today declare themselves to be Christians but still remain followers of their traditional African religions, especially in matters concerning the inner dimensions of their lives. It is evident that, in strictly personal matters relating to such issues as passage rites and crises, most Africans turn to their African traditional religions. As an incarnational faith, part of the history of Christianity has been its encounter with other cultures and its becoming deeply rooted in some of these cultures. The central question remains: Why has the Christian faith not taken deep root in Africa? This volume is concerned with answering this question.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two major strands of theology have developed in Africa--inculturation and liberation--each in response to different needs. Emmanuel Martey's African Theology provides a clear, scholarly examination of these two basic approaches, solidly based on Martey's understanding of contemporary theology and his firsthand knowledge of Africa.Martey first examines the historical background of each of these theological developments, especially relating to cultural and political movements enveloping the continent in the 1970s. In sub-Saharan Africa, struggles for independence from colonizers have resulted in inculturation theology. The defining aspect of this theology is that it pushes its roots firmly in African culture and traditions. In South Africa, on the other hand, Black Africans struggling against the oppressive systems of apartheid have turned to liberation theology.Martey shows how the real hope for African theology lies in the dialectical encounter between these two approaches and in their potential for convergence. "The two foci (of liberation and inculturation)," Martey says, "are not contradictory, but complement each other." African Theology concludes by challenging African theologians to weld together the praxis of inculturation with that of liberation, in order to achieve an integrative vision for the continent.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the theological and anthropological foundations of the understanding of the dignity and vocation of woman as a mother and wife, gifts given by God that expresses the riches of the African concept of family. There are two approaches to inculturation theology in Africa, namely, that which attempts to construct African theology by starting from the biblical ecclesial teachings and find from them what features of African culture are relevant to the Christian theological and anthropological values, and the other one which takes the African cultural background as the point of departure. According to John Paul II, the dignity and vocation of woman is "something more universal, based on the very fact of her being a woman within all the interpersonal relationships, which, in the most varied ways, shape society and structure the interaction between all persons," (Mulieris Dignitatem no. 29). This "concerns each and every woman, independent of the cultural context in which she lives and independently of her spiritual, psychological and physical characteristics, as for example, age, education, health, work, and whether she is married or single," (Mulieris Dignitatem, no. 29). The theology of inculturation as presented in this dissertation opens the way for the integration of the theological anthropological teachings of John Paul II in understanding African woman as mother and wife.

Download or read book Semiotic Approach to the Theology of Inculturation written by Cyril Orji and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2017-08-31 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Semiotic Approach to the Theology of Inculturation argues that though it is a difficult and delicate task, inculturation is still a requisite demand of a World Church and that without it the Church is unrecognisable and unsustainable. The book also suggests that the past failures of inculturation experiments in Africa can be overcome only by critically applying the science of semiotics, which can serve as an antidote to the nature of human knowing and reductionism that characterised earlier attempts to make Christianity African to the African. Drawing from the semiotic works of C.S. Peirce, Clifford Geertz, and Bernard Lonergan, Cyril Orji shows why semiotics is best suited to an African theology of inculturation and offers ten pinpointed precepts, identified as 'Habits', which underline the attentiveness, reasonableness, and responsibility required in a semiotic approach to a theology of inculturation. The 'Habits' are also akin to the imperatives inherent in the notion of catholicity - that catholicity is not identified with uniformity but with reconciled diversity, and also that catholicity demands different forms in different places, times, and cultural settings.

Download or read book A Sense of Belonging written by Hilton Scott and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-03-08 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes an interdisciplinary approach to a societal challenge that both affects and is affected by the church in multi-racial, multi-cultural, and otherwise pluralistic communities. In certain contexts, around the world there are pertinent examples of the struggles that come with learning to live together in the midst of diversity and plurality, such as the post-apartheid Republic of South Africa. However, these (more often than not racial and cultural) struggles could be eased by developing worship services that are more relevant and inclusive. This, in turn, should instil a sense of belief and a way of inclusive thinking, culminating in more inclusive living. The approach developed in this book stems from the aphorism lex orandi, lex credendi, lex (con)vivendi—or “as we pray, so we believe, so we live (together).”
