As African Christianity continues to expand, scholars interested in understanding the theological embroidery offered by African Christianity are now challenged to provide the academy with concrete examples of just how Christianity is doing in each of the 54 sovereign and independent countries that make up the African continent. At African Theology Worldwide, we have taken up this challenge to showcase just how diverse Christianity is across Africa and what this means for our understanding of Africa’s place in World Christianity.
Launched at the Cape Town 2010 Congress of the Lausanne Movement, the Global Diaspora Network is organizing an online event on Tuesday 23 August 2022.
The research group Modernity and Society of the research unit of History and the Research Unit Systematic Theology and the Study of Religions of the University of Leuven (KU Leuven), are offering two fully-funded PhD positions, each for a duration of four years. Successful candidates are expected to conduct research on the project theme: “The Decolonization of the Roman Catholic Church in the DRC / Zaire, 1960s-2000s.”
As Christianity continues to expand across the African continent and among the African diaspora, scholars interested in understanding the theological embroidery offered by African Christian constituents have gathered pace. More often than not, the scholarly initiatives to study recent African Christian developments have come from non-African voices and sources.
