In spite of persecution and waning in some areas of the world, Christianity in Africa has continued to grow. Yet alongside the flourishing of the church comes challenges of syncretism and pluralism. In this ninth volume from the annual conference of the Africa Society of Evangelical Theology, contributors explore the African Christian's understanding of church through contextual ecclesiology. These African theologians address irrefutable realities for the African church while covering an extensive range of topics such as the priesthood of all believers, the functions and ministries of church in society, and church growth strategies. Presenting ecclesiology through the lenses of scriptural examinations, historical theology, systematic examinations, and practical theology, these essays work together to build a contemporary understanding of the burgeoning church in Africa through African voices.
