Beschreibung
The joy over the growth of Christianity in Africa is also a
challenge to all concerned to help Christianity take roots,
ennoble and become one with the cultural life of the
numerous tribes of Africa.
This missionary expectation is
not yet fully realized in many local churches in Africa.
From these perspectives, Adolphus Chikezie Anuka inaugurates
a new brand of concrete, target-oriented emphasis on
dialogical inculturation. In this book, the Mmanwu
cultural institution of the Igbo people of south eastern
Nigeria stands in central focus, opening itself to the
influences of Christian values as well as speaking to the
religious assumptions of Christianity.
The theoretical
results of this research work and its practical pastoral
suggestions are both enlightening and appealing.
Adolphus Chikezie Anuka, born 1971 in Ozalla
Nigeria, studied Philosophy, Theology, Education and
Religion in Enugu and Awka Nigeria. His doctoral studies was
in St. Augustin Germany and he is currently doing a
post-doctoral research work at the University of Bonn
Germany.
