Note1: For the record, there is no such thing as an African Christianity (Try to define “African” or “Christianity”).  As on other continents, there are many Christians with different interpretations of Christian beliefs.

Note2: The titles listed below are my own working bibliography. Please suggest any works you think should be added in the comments section – (author, title). Last updated: 1 May 2008

  3. Ben says:

Catholic bookstores also stock many of these titles – even ones by evangelicals.
