Akan Christology

Theology

“Is the goal of Christology to render Jesus Christ familiar and 'at home' within a cultural context? Or is the task of theology to continually renew the strangeness of Jesus to every cultural context, against ever-present tendencies toward domestication and proprietary control? These are difficult and risky questions to ask in postcolonial Africa. In this challenging new book, Charles Aye-Addo has the courage both to ask them and to struggle toward fresh answers.”

History & Biography

“This startlingly honest memoir is essential reading for white folk in the USA, and for anyone struggling to understand the intractable power of racism and white supremacy in our personal and social lives. At the heart of this story is the mystery of how the destructive forces of racism—and sexism and homophobia—can reign in hearts and lives that are also full of genuine, life-giving familial love and loyalty. The book’s stark promise: transformative change is possible, but only as a lifelong journey accompanied by heartbreaking division and conflict. Nibs Stroupe’s gospel is one of truly redemptive power—that also divides like a sword.”
