 | A New History of African Christian Thought: From Cape to Cairo 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.
David Tonghou Ngong (Ph.D., Baylor University) is originally from Cameroon, Africa, and is currently Associate Professor of Religion and Theology at Stilman College, Tuscaloosa, Alabama, USA. In addition to many published articles in international journals, he is author of The Holy Spirit and Salvation in African Christian Theology (2010) and Theology as Construction of Piety (2013). |
