Chrit-Our-Guest: A Liturgical Adaptation of Guest Christology

Abstract

Several attempts have been made by African theologians to formulate christological models for African Christianity. In the preceding issue we published a brief survey of these christological models, pointing out as one of their deficiencies the lack of a pastoral dimension. This article attempts to remedy this deficiency by constructing a christological ritual based on Guest Christology and the African understanding of guest. We would be interested in hearing from our readers on the applicability and suitability of this liturgical adaptation.
