Description
Building Vital Churches in African Catholicism is a compendium of essays that paints a portrait of hope for a rediscovery of the nature and mission of the Church in the light of the paradox of an African continent that is fragmented and wounded, yet blessed with growth in Christian faith. A vital ecclesiology, which this book articulates, envisions the identity, mission, and structure of the Church as a fountain of abundant life.
The term ‘Vital Church’ hence communicates the underlying identity of the Church in its christological, pneumatological, missiological, and soteriological dimensions. A vital Church expresses the nature of the community of God’s peoples, grounded in trinitarian communion, and sent into the world by Christ to birth abundant life for all peoples and to foster cosmic flourishing.
