Contextualization of a Christian faith enriches, encourages, and dynamically empowers any people group to respond meaningfully to the scriptures. This book attempts to discover how to make the gospel and Christian truth culturally relevant to the Igbo and/or other cultural groups, while maintaining its supracultural status. Obviously, this establishes a foundation for Christian theologizing and church nurture within the context of the peoples' worldview. The problem is that most churches in Igboland, and the ECWA Church in particular, have not realized the contextual relevance of the gospel. This book develops a descriptive analysis of God, spirits, sin, and salvation adapting Hohensee's model, "Range of Variation for Contextual Theologies." Hohensee's methodology makes allowance for the cultural and psychological differences unique to certain individuals as they interpret the scriptures. - Back cover.
