A Problem of Presence: Beyond Scripture in an African Church (Anthropology of Christianity)

by Matthew Engelke (Author)

Synopsis

The Friday Masowe apostolics of Zimbabwe claim they do not need the Bible because they receive the Word of God 'live and direct' from the Holy Spirit. This book documents how this rejection of scripture speaks to longstanding concerns within Christianity over mediation and authority.
