African Pentecostalism and religious plurality in Flanders

Joseph Bosco Bangura examines the growth of African Pentecostal communities in Flemish Belgium and their place within a largely secular society. The book connects developments in African Pentecostalism with the formation of migrant churches, focusing on how these congregations serve the African diaspora and engage with Belgium’s Protestant-Evangelical minority. Liturgical practices and Pentecostal mission theologies provide the framework for discussing intercultural exchange, religious marginality, and dialogue across diverse communities. Bangura argues that these churches contribute to efforts toward coexistence and mutual respect in a plural society.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

Book overview

This book explores the recent rise of African Pentecostalism and its rejuvenation of the Protestant-Evangelical minority religion in a secular and liberal (Flemish) Belgium. Beginning with an overview of developments within African Pentecostalism, the author discusses how, after arriving in Belgium African Pentecostals are using pneumatic mission theologies to establish 'migrant churches' that interculturally engage the needs of the African diaspora in a secular Flemish Belgium. The author argues that, despite their position of marginality, followers of African Pentecostalism have attempted to dialogue with a heterogeneously diverse minority Protestant-Evangelicalism through implementing a myriad of liturgical practices reflective of the African Christian imagination. By deploying Pentecostal mission theologies, the author pivots the intercultural contributions that African Pentecostalism makes towards solidifying peaceful coexistence, respect, and dialogue in a secular, plural, and liberal (Flemish) Belgium.
