Wash and Pray: African Theological Discourse on COVID-19
In the wake of the global COVID-19 pandemic, Africa faced a unique set of challenges that sparked a profound spiritual response among its people. Wash and Pray: African Theological Discourse on COVID-19 delves into the heart of this response, exploring the intersections of faith, culture, history, and the pandemic that gripped the world from 2019 to 2022. The book demonstrates that for many Africans, the pandemic was not just a medical crisis but also a spiritual battle. As such, the book invites the reader to witness the historicising of the pandemic in Africa through this landmark resource for current and future generations, ensuring that the narratives of African Christianity in the face of COVID-19 and other pandemics are not lost. The chapter contributions offer diverse perspectives from Ghana, Nigeria, Rwanda, Zimbabwe, and the UK, each contextualising the African Christian response to the pandemic. In essence, this monograph paints a rich tapestry of African theological discourse during a global crisis, ultimately affirming that faith and science, when harmonised, can lead to a resilient and thriving community.

The Asianization of Christianity
"The Asianization of Christianity is a catalyst to change the mission landscape of Asia by making the Gospel more accessible to Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, Animists, and others. It is hoped that a new generation of mission leaders will use these culturally specific principles to build bridges from the heart of God to the heart of Asian cultures"--
The Four Generations
It is said here that the human race can be divided by attitude into four; can it now? These four attitude-determined groups may very well be said to have been created along the planes of the temperaments. Thus, there are the Sanguine, the Choleric, the Melancholy and the Phlegmatic. Each one of these persons has his own inherent strengths and weaknesses. Interestingly, mentioned here is not just a weakness, but the paramount, and perhaps defining, weakness of each temperament: the Sanguine's pride, the Choleric's voraciousness, the Melancholy's pessimism, and the Phlegmatic's sanctimony! But where is here? Am I involved? Do you belong? How are you involved? What can you learn? Lets find out, together. As is said, learning never stops. Come along now, please!
Race, Place, and Memory
A revealing work of public history that shows how communities remember their pasts in different ways to fit specific narratives, Race, Place, and Memory charts the ebb and flow of racial violence in Wilmington, North Carolina, from the 1730s to the present day. Margaret Mulrooney argues that white elites have employed public spaces, memorials, and celebrations to maintain the status quo. The port city has long celebrated its white colonial revolutionary origins, memorialized Decoration Day, and hosted Klan parades. Other events, such as the Azalea Festival, have attempted to present a false picture of racial harmony to attract tourists. And yet, the revolutionary acts of Wilmington’s A...
