Summary: | In July 2010, delegates from twenty-seven African countries met under Abuja Archbishop John Olorunfemi Onaiyekan’s auspices for the first conference “held within Africa to focus solely on the relationship of the African Christian with Islam.” John Azumah and Lamin Sanneh edited the 2013 volume, The African Christian and Islam, which cultivates, harvests, and distributes fruits emerging from this conference. This essay explores their insights and implications for Africa and beyond on vital issues such as inclusiveness, polemics, proselytizing, and Holy Scripture. |
