For Freedom or Bondage? - A Critique of African Pastoral Practices (Paperback)

In Ghana today, many people who suffer from a variety of human ills
wander from one pastor to another in search of a spiritual cure.
Because of the way cultural beliefs about the spiritual world have
interwoven with their Christian faith, many Ghanaian Christians
live in bondage to their fears of evil spiritual powers, seeing
Jesus as a superior power to use against these malevolent spiritual
forces. In For Freedom or Bondage? Esther Acolatse argues that
Christian pastoral practices in many African churches include too
much influence from African traditional religions. She examines
Ghana Independent Charismatic churches as a case study, offering
theological and psychological analysis of current pastoral care
practices through the lenses of Barth and Jung. Facilitating a
three-strand conversation between African traditional religion,
Barthian theology, and Jungian analytical psychology, Acolatse
interrogates problematic cultural narratives and offers a more
nuanced approach to pastoral care
