Listen "Rediscovering Africa’s Ancient Christian Roots"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Living Theology, Brendon Naicker unpacks the deep and often overlooked history of Christianity in Africa. Far from being introduced by European missionaries, Christianity has ancient roots in Africa, thriving long before colonial times. Join us as we explore how indigenous Christian traditions, from Ethiopian Orthodoxy to African Independent Churches, resisted Western impositions and reshaped the faith on their own terms. Discover how African theologians like John Mbiti and Kwame Bediako have reclaimed this rich heritage, reminding us that Christianity in Africa is vibrant, contextual, and enduring.#AfricanChristianity #LivingTheology #ChurchHistory #EthiopianOrthodoxy #AfricanIndependentChurches #PostcolonialTheology #KwameBediako #JohnMbiti #ChristianHeritage #FaithAndCulture #TheologicalResistance #AncientChurch #AfricanTheology #ChristianPodcast #BrendonNaicker
