Evangelical Christians in the Muslim Sahel
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
Barbara M. Cooper looks closely at the Sudan Interior Mission, anevangelical Christian mission that has taken a tenuous hold in a predominantly HausaMuslim area on the southern fringe of Niger. Based on sustained fieldwork, personalinterviews, and archival research, this vibrant, sensitive, compelling, and candidbook gives a unique glimpse into an important dimension of religious life in Africa.Cooper's involvement in a violent religious riot provides a useful backdrop forintroducing other themes and concerns such as Bible translation, medical outreach, public preaching, tensions between English-speaking and French-speakingmissionaries, and the Christian mission's changing views of Islam.
