Missional Notes

For the last couple of days I’ve been attending the Amahoro conference at Hekpoort, west of Pretoria, South Africa. About 250 people, mostly young, were discussing post-colonialism, truth & reconciliation, homelessness, xenophobia and Christian responses to these.

They come from various countries, mostly from Africa.

I hope it might be possible to continue the conversation on Usenet or other forums, and perhaps involve a wider group, including people who weren’t able to be there.

Here are three blog posts I’ve posted, covering the conference, and each has links to more:

1. Postcolonialism - http://bit.ly/2puC2s
2. Adriaan Vlok - truth & reconciliation http://bit.ly/110GFC
3. Brian McLaren, Bishop Paul Verryn, xenophobia http://bit.ly/18NG5E

There are also links to places where you can download recordings of papers read, etc.

So if possible read some of these, and share your thoughts, either here, or in the Christianity and Society discussion forum.

Amahoro has largely been supported by people interested in the emerging/missional church movement.
