"""The book covers a wide range of relevant topics of present Africa. Each chapter approaches the subject matter with a high standard of scientific research, presenting new perspectives that will be highly relevant for praxis and further study."" --Theo Sundermeier, retired professor of missiology and history of religion ""Western scholars often approach Africa as an object for their take on religious studies. In this book, Africa seeks her own voice in matters of gender, politics, economy, climate change, and the internet. African scholars have a lot to teach on the relation between humans and their non-human contexts, especially where they mirror the dignity of patience and of imperfection in our common quest for human progress."" --Eric Ottenheijm, associate professor of Jewish studies and biblical studies, Utrecht University ""It is refreshing to read about scholars who analyze religion and African culture, and I am delighted that new religious leaders will have the privilege of addressing issues of Christianity from their own African perspective. I highly recommend this book, then, because it will help clergy, students, and pastoral caregivers share new methods of addressing religious studies or Christianity from the African perspective, particularly those struggling to accept their own methodologies based in Africa."" --Maake J. Masango, professor of practical theology, University of Pretoria"
