Symbolic Interactionism in the Gospel according to John

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Mligo's work is a great contribution in the scholarship of John's gospel. Employing social science approaches, particularly the perspective of symbolic interactionism, Mligo demonstrates that in John's gospel, water not only signifies purification and initiation, but also life and healing, discipleship of service, abolition of boundaries that separate people based on their race, and a vehicle through which people become members in God's rule. This book is insightful, intriguing, and educative. I endorse it because it is good for students, ministers, and scholars as well.”

The Pastor in a Changing Society

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Kinyamagoha's book is an important contribution in the field of pastoral theology from Africa. Kinyamagoha not only 'brings alive lived-experiences' of social change affecting the pastor's role in Africa, but also proposes how church leaders can respond to the challenges facing pastors in their ministry. The book is insightful and an important resource in the study and practice of pastoral theology worldwide. I recommend it to students of theology, pastors, theologians, and church leaders.”
