Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Theology - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,3, University of Bonn (Evangelisch-theologische Fakultät, Zentrum für Religion und Gesellschaft), course: Master’s Programme in Ecumenical Studies, language: English, abstract: Mission or partnership? In many cases even Christians adopt an ambiguous attitude concerning Christian mission.They sympathize with the term "partnership” instead, particularly in connection with contemporary relations between Christians in the Northern Hemisphere and those in the Global South. But many of them are not aware of the close relationship between the history and different understandings of Christian mission, its theological background and the contemporary understanding of Christian partnerships. The present thesis contains a critical analysis of the complex connections between Christian mission, different mission theologies and church partnerships today. Based on a review of the historical development of European external mission and its theological foundations, contemporary church partnerships will be analyzed with a particular focus on relationships between Protestant Western German churches and congregations, and Protestant Western and Southern African churches and congregations. Special emphasis will be placed on the question to what degree these partnerships are influenced by mission theological perspectives and how much awareness of the connection between mission, mission theologies and partnerships exists among those persons who are involved in the partnerships.

The present study investigates the impact of the Pentecostal-charismatic movement on theological education in mainline Churches in Africa, taking the United Church of Zambia (UCZ) as a case study. The study reviews the understanding of theological education in the New and Old Testaments. It considers the development of Christian theology from the Apostolic era to postmodern times. It is argued that the fabric of contemporary Christian theology was developed during the patristic and the reformation periods. The study points out that the UCZ, after its formation in 1965, inherited beliefs, practices, and a model of theological education from its mother-European mission Churches. However, influence of the Pentecostal-charismatic movement has led to the adoption of Pentecostal beliefs and practices by many Christians in the UCZ. To accommodate likeminded members of its congregations, the UCZ has welcomed certain Pentecostal-charismatic beliefs and practices in its services. The present study argues that mainline African Churches such as the UCZ need to use a Pentecostal model of theological education that is open-minded and that takes serious account of certain features of the Pentecostal-charismatic movement on the continent such as the African worldview, de-clericalization, secularization, ecumenicity, inter-faith dialogue, and fresh expressions of faith.

Missiology, the study of missions, has not always had a firm place amongst the major theological disciplines. But since the Church in Africa is largely built on missions, an understanding thereof depends on an appreciation of how the history of European and American missionary activities came to define the African Church. This book considers the missionary movements from a Malawian perspective. It considers the major periods of Christian expansion, the interaction of Islam and Christianity, and, more recently, the role of the missionaries in the struggle against HIV/AIDS.
