This book examines the complex history of Adventism in Africa,
situating it within the context of African traditions and culture.
From a small movement with origins in the United States, the
Seventh-day Adventist Church has grown worldwide. It is one of
several Christian denominations present in Africa and yet the
history of Seventh-day Adventism in the global South has been
largely unexplored by scholars. The book highlights the
discrepancies between western traditions exhibited in the
missionary enterprise and African religious systems. It also
explores the intricate relation between colonialism and African
Adventism in line with established studies in African Christianity.
It will be of interest to scholars of religion and theology,
particularly church history and mission studies, as well as African
studies.
