Product Description

▼▲

* Because of influential cultural beliefs, many Ghanaian Christians live in bondage to their fear of evil spirits. How should Christian pastors deal with pervasive indigenous convictions? Examining Ghana Independent Charismatic churches, Acolaste facilitates a conversation between African traditional religion, Barthian theology, and Jungian analytic psychology. Her fresh approach offers a more nuanced path to pastoral care. 224 pages, softcover from Eerdmans.
