The Igbo people in Nigeria continue to make some movements
toward Christianity, but many fail to practice the faith properly.
Tribal traditions and old beliefs continue to be mixed with
Christian concepts. By exploring the problem from a psychological
and pastoral perspective, author Bartholomew N. Okere seeks to
discover ways to advance the Christian faith.
Okere, an ordained Catholic priest, asks serious questions about
the nature of religion: Can someone believe in a supernatural being
without any proof that the being is a ecting his life?
Can the notion of God be therapeutic in any sense, especially when
people face di rent life-threatening situations? Can a hungry
person sing and praise God on empty stomach? Can the name of God be
employed for political gains?
The Christian religion in Nigeria has dramatically a ected the
people of Igboland. Discover why this is so important, and learn
more about faith, religion, and life in Nigeria in "An Appraisal of
the Growth of the Christian Faith in Igboland."
