African Theology in the 21st Century - A call to Baraza

Editors: O. Opongo, SJ and Paul Bere, SJ

This book is a tribute to Rev. Professor Laurenti Magesa who has immensely contributed to development of African Theology. Professor Magesa retired from active teaching at Hekima University College in May 2021, at the age of 75, but his legacy as a luminary and intuitive theologian remains.

The collection of articles in this book contributes to the debates, conversations, analysis, evaluation, and conceptualisation of the African Theology from different contextual aspirations and challenges by a wide array of African scholars.

The articles constitute a ‘baraza’, a Swahili word for a convened conversation to address an issue, and form part of Professor Magesa's "Endless Quest" to make the Church in Africa truly African.
