dc.descriptionThis book chapter by Daniel Mwailu examines the African understanding of sin from biblical and theological perspectives. It investigates how African religious and cultural understandings of sin influence the interpretation and practice of hamartiology within African Christianity. The chapter explores the relationship between African traditional religious beliefs and biblical teachings on sin, highlighting the significance of contextual theological reflection in developing a biblically grounded understanding of sin within African Christian communities. It contributes to the broader discourse on African Christian theology by examining how indigenous religious perspectives interact with Christian doctrines and their implications for theological understanding and practice.en_US
