Mocking the Powerlessness of the Poor? Public Theology and Neo-Pentecostal Prophetic Utilitarian Religiosity in an Unjust Zimbabwe
This article offers a public theological critique of the neo-Pentecostal prophets’ ( NPP s) use of religiosity to address poverty in Zimbabwe. The concept of religiosity used to attain material prosperity is described as utilitarian religiosity and is derived from Helmut Richard Niebuhr’s notion of utilitarian Christianity. Utilitarian religiosity frames the poverty of the poor as a result of their failure to cultivate the necessary personal spir…
How the public nature of theology could address the proliferation of unaccredited theological qualifications in Africa
The proliferation of questionable theological qualifications thrives on a privatised perception of theology that treats studying theology as a private matter between the believer and God. Unregistered theological institutions issuing ‘fake qualifications’ do so based on the perception that they are dealing with something private between God and them. This perception is undergirded by the belief that if God is pleased with their institutions, they…
Promoting Dealmaking? Utilitarian Religiosity and Faith Among African Neo-Pentecostal Prophets

NPPs represent a contemporary form of African Pentecostalism, characterised by prophetic figures wh…

Rejecting Christ's Freedom? Sacralisation and Personalisation in African Neo-Pentecostal Prophetism
The African religiosity that permeates all human existence is driven by a consuming desire for connection with the spiritual world that provides and protects human flourishing. African neo-Pentecostal prophets (ANPPs) respond to this need by imposing themselves as the sacral agents that can connect people to God. The sacralisation of prophets leads them to personalise the church as their personal property. The question answered by this article is…

Mocking the just God? A theological critique of President Mnangagwa’s use of the name of God to justify his rule in Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe’s President Emmerson Mnangagwa justified his unconstitutional ascendency to power after a military coup that dethroned former President Robert Mugabe in 2017 by claiming that ‘the voice of the people is the voice of God’.
