Gospel ferment in Malawi

"Many scholars have noted the importance of Christianity in Malawi and have written on the social, economic and political influence of the Christian faith. What is harder to find is study of the nature of the faith, analysis of the substance and inner logic of the religious consciousness which developed in Malawi as its peoples responded to the Christian message. By bringing forward a selection of key primary sources this book provides the opportunity to read the story of Malawian Christianity "from the inside." It allows some Malawian Christians to speak for themselves so that church history might be formed by listening directly and critically to voices from the past. The book is one of the first-fruits of a Church History Project launched in 1991 by the Association of Theological Institutions in Southern and Central Africa (ATISCA). The aim of the project is to improve the teaching and learning of church history throughout the region, particularly by enabling students to engage thoughtfully with their own church history. This book will admirably serve that purpose and will also be an excellent resource for all readers seeking to understand Malawian society and, in particular, the role played by Christianity."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
