| 520 | |a This paper explores a specific metaphor, (ungalichameli iqolomba), shedding light on its meaning, dissecting its layers, and developing theoretical insights into the profound interrelationships and connections it encapsulates. Furthermore, it seeks to investigate the extent to which this metaphor can enrich eco-Christian or practical theology. This exploration is facilitated by utilising indigenous storytelling methodology, with a primary question in mind: How can African indigenous religion enhance eco-Christian theology? This research aims to uncover the untapped potential of African wisdom for addressing contemporary environmental and intercultural challenges while honouring the interconnectedness of life, the environment, and spirituality. A social community caregiving perspective will be adopted. This paper contributes to the expanding field of eco-Christian theology by introducing and examining the metaphor ungalichameli iqolomba through an indigenous storytelling methodology, offering new theoretical insights derived from African indigenous religion. In doing so, it aims to bridge African wisdom with eco-Christian theology, providing practical solutions to contemporary environmental and intercultural challenges from a social community caregiving perspective. | ||
