Zusammenfassung:
The active agents in the multiethnic, multicultural East African Revival are African leaders who forge a new, distinctly African Christian spirituality that precipitates the moral and spiritual transformation of countless individuals throughout the region.
The East African Revival is a fascinating historical example of the significant role indigenous agency can play in creating a new Christian spirituality. African revivalists initiated the spread of the movement, employing creative practices such as public testimony and fellowship meetings to sustain the effects of conversion experiences. Daewon Moon integrates theological and sociological analyses of conversion with interviews and personal narratives that express insiders’ perspectives. As active agents in the multiethnic and multicultural movement, African revivalists articulate through their words and changed lives what it means to be 'saved'.
