Walking far together: Theological education and development in African pastoral formation.

1 online resource (388 leaves) / This study examines the intersubjectivity of issues related to pastoral
formation. It argues that a local theology of pastoral formation in the
African context is most transformative when theological education
and development are woven together in a synergistic approach. Such
a model of local theology can result from a well thought out synergy
between educational theories, developmental theories and theology. It
is further argued that equipped pastoral leaders and healthy churches
are at the heart of the process for holistic transformation. As such,
this study proposes a philosophy and praxis that relevantly addresses
the intersubjective context of leadership formation in the African
context. It intends to challenge the church in Africa to redefine its
task and itself in the face of the social problems posed on all levels of
African life. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / D. Th. (Missiology)
