The Faith and Practice of the African Episcopal Church (Digital Download)

$9.95

This is a concise account of the African Episcopal Church (AEC), and its distinct mix of Afrocentric identity in the Anglican tradition. Rooted in African culture and inspired by liberation theology, the AEC enacts a religion of justice, solidarity and cultural legitimacy.

From a tradition that was steeped in African and African-American religion, the AEC has developed a liturgy that mixes old-fashioned Anglican ritual with African spirituality and songs, for a unique worship experience. Important theological influences are liberation theology and womanism that drive the church’s devotion to justice and equality on the basis of Biblical principles such as Micah 6:8 and Ephesians 4:3.

The book also emphasizes the AEC’s commitment to ecumenical and interfaith outreach, including solidarity and partnership with different groups. In conclusion, it presents the AEC as an ideal of cultural identity and Christian religion in a warm climate for spiritual cultivation and social interaction among people of African descent.
