NCHE, George C.; OKWUOSA, Lawrence N.  and  NWAOGA, Theresa C.. Revisiting the concept of inculturation in a modern Africa: A reflection on salient issues. Herv. teol. stud. [online]. 2016, vol.72, n.1, pp.01-06. ISSN 2072-8050.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/hts.v72i1.3015.

This article revisited the concept of 'Inculturation' in modern Africa. Through the use of a historical phenomenological method, the article averred that Inculturation of Christianity in modern Africa is a herculean task that demands absolute caution. Hence, the article discussed some salient issues such as the evolutionary nature of African culture; the unity of the Christendom; and the Christian ecological concern, which should be put into serious consideration in the entire process of inculturation in Africa to safeguard the essence of the gospel of Christ and to meet contemporary challenges.
