Love, Joy, and Sex
There is no papal document that has generated as much interest, controversy, and debate in recent times as Pope Francis’s Amoris Laetitia. This document, which came out of two very divisive synods of Catholic bishops and leaders in Rome in 2014 and 2015, will probably be the most discussed document ever produced by a pope in modern Catholicism on marriage and family life. This volume has gathered seminal commentaries on Amoris Laetitia by African Catholic theologians, social scientists, and pastoral workers. They offer African theological and pastoral responses to the principles and practices proposed by Pope Francis and the Synod on the family on such contested issues as same-sex relation...

Thinking Globally and Responding Locally in the Church
How has Pope Francis’s groundbreaking document on marriage and family, Amoris Laetitia, been implemented in Africa? In Asia? In Latin America? In this volume, scholars from across these regions reflect on their experiences, correcting the overly western focus of most reactions to AL. The contributions look at local issues like polygamy in Africa, as well as more global issues in a local context, like feminism in Indonesia and synodality in Colombia. The reader will find that concerns about marriage and family can be similar throughout the world or specific to different contexts. As a whole, the book contributes to a more diverse and revisited catholic understanding of marriage and family.
Who Do You Say That I Am?
For the church, there can be no more significant question than Christ’s Who do you say that I am? It is the cornerstone upon which all of Christian faith and praxis must stand. In this volume, the sixth from the Africa Society of Evangelical Theology, contributors explore the question of Christ’s identity – and its implications for the global church – from a distinctly African perspective. Engaging biblical studies, church history, and applications for missions, discipleship, and inter-religious dialogue, these essays utilize African hermeneutics and rich cultural perspectives to shed light on Christ’s contextual relevance for Africa and for the world. The final section is dedicated to the memory of John S. Mbiti, the father of modern African theology, who passed away in 2019.

LA SYNODALITE DANS LA VIE ET DANS LA MISSION DE L'EGLISE
« Le monde dans lequel nous vivons, et que nous sommes appelés à aimer et à servir même dans ses contradictions, exige de l’Église le renforcement des synergies dans tous les domaines de sa mission. Le chemin de la synodalité est justement celui que Dieu attend de l’Église du troisième millénaire. Ce que le Seigneur nous demande, en un certain sens, est déjà pleinement contenu dans le mot ‘‘Synode’’. Marcher ensemble – Laïcs, Pasteurs, Évêque de Rome – est un concept facile à exprimer en paroles, mais pas si facile à mettre en pratique. » Pape François Préface de Mgr Laurent Camiade
Synodalität in der katholischen Kirche
Das Dokument der Internationalen Theologenkommission greift mit der Synodalität ein Thema auf, das im Pontifikat von Papst Franziskus in den Fokus gerückt ist und Gegenstand der nächsten Bischofssynode sein wird. Damit verbunden sind Fragen nach dem Verhältnis von Orts- und Universalkirche, von Hierarchie und Gemeinschaft. In Auseinandersetzung mit dem Dokument vertieft die Quaestio das Thema aus biblischer, kirchengeschichtlicher, dogmatischer, ökumenischer, kirchenrechtlicher und pastoraltheologischer Perspektive.
