Summary: | What does it mean for Christians in Africa to receive the gift and invitaƯtion of reconciliation in the midst of the stubborn realities of war, poverty, and violence? Here, Emmanuel Katongole outlines a theological vision of reconciliation as God's journey with creation--both gift and mission. He then explores the ecclesiological dimension of reconciliation and provides different porƯtraits on why and how the church matters for reconciliation in Africa. Finally, he draws on stories of peace activists in Congo, Uganda, and Rwanda to illuminate the spiritual and practical disciplines that sustain those who labor for reconciliation. -- Provided by publisher.
