This book puts John Chrysostom in conversation with deliverance
ministries and the prosperity gospel in modern African charismatic
Christianity. Chrysostom had a cosmology not unlike that present in
the charismatic Christianity of the global south, where the world
is populated by spirits able to affect the material world.
Additionally, Chrysostom had plenty to say about suffering, demons,
and prosperity. Through this conversation, issues of personal moral
responsibility and salvation rise to the surface, and it is through
these issues that modern Western and African Christians can perhaps
have a conversation that gets past the "weirdness" of a
spirit-inhabited world and talk together about the saving work of
Christ for the benefit of all the Church.
