This book examines the origins and development ofChristianity in Africa from the early story of EgyptianChristianity to the spectacular growth, vitality, anddiversity of the churches in Africa today.

The book opens with Christianity in Antiquity and shows howEgypt and N. Africa produced some of the most influentialintellects of the time. She then discusses the churchesfounded in the wake of early contacts with Europe, from thelate fifteenth century on, and the unbroken Christian witness of Coptic Egypt and of Ethiopia. Isichei also examines the different types of Christianity in modern Africa and shows how social factors have influenced its development and expression.
With the explosive growth of Christianity now taking place in Africa–393 million adherents projected by the year 2000- and the increasingly recognized significance of AfricanChristianity, this book fills the void in scholarly works onAfrica’s Christian past.
