Ranging from biblical studies and church history to medical ethics and public theology, this collection offers a rich diversity of voices and perspectives as each author reflects on God's heart for conflict alleviation within the contexts of their own communities, nations, histories, and academic disciplines. Taken together, these contributions offer profound insight into both the particularities and generalities of God's transformative, healing work in the world, and how we, the church, are called to partner with that work - in Africa and beyond.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"As the center of gravity of Christianity moves to the Global South, and especially to Africa, the offerings in this book will be a very welcome addition to the panoramic overview of the faith of African believers. The challenge of Jesus to us all to pursue forgiveness, peacemaking, and reconciliation at all levels is not yet exhausted. This book offers various theoretical frameworks from different angles to pursue these worthy aims. Highly recommended for church leaders and their precious members, as well as students and the general public." <b>Rev. Casely B. Essamuah, ThD</b> Secretary, Global Christian Forum<br><br>"This is one of the great pearls that African theologians have produced. It is a testament to what African collaborative partnership in scholarship can give to the global community. It is not only scholarly and academic work, but it also illustrates how African theologians are once again demonstrating their ability to engage in careful theological reflection on their social setting through vigorous empirical studies. It showcases an extensive grasp of a broad spectrum of issues - social, cultural, political, religious, and economic - which have perennial consequences. Indeed, this is the kind of book that can enormously contribute to the creation of "a new spirit of Africa" - The Africa We Want and God wants." <b>Rev. Sunday Bobai Agang, PhD</b> Professor of Christian Ethics, Theology and Public Policy, Provost, ECWA Theological Seminary, Jos (JETS) Director, African Research Consultancy Center, West African Region<br>
