Jesus of Africa explores Christologies from French-and-English-speaking African scholars and clergy while also reporting on how African lay people view Jesus. Stinton has a keen appreciation for how theology is being reconceptualised in Africa, as titles such as Messiah and Christos are translated into new languages and different symbolic universes. Scholars, students, and mission professionals will find Jesus of Africa indispensable reading. "This study by a Canadian woman is striking addition to the burgeoning of an African theology and shows that it is no longer solely the preserve of Africans. In examining African Christology, It probes the fundamental theme of all Christian theology, the person of Christ. In addition, it includes prominently African women's perspectives, while dealing with both oral and written Christological views. Jesus of Africa reveals an author capable of sensitive scholarship and the humility of a person who has drunk deeply from the spring of African theology. It should become standard reading for every student of African theology."
