Pastor Nevers Mumba's Quest to Actualize the Declaration of Zambia as a Christian Nation through "Zambia Shall Be Saved" Campaign, 1993-2021
This article is grounded in the findings from qualitative and interpretivist research based on secondary and primary data. Two analytic frameworks have been used to make sense of the data. The first is Stephen Ellis and Gerrie ter Haar's hypothesis that politics in sub-Saharan African societies cannot be fully understood without reference to religious ideas therein; and the second is the notion of African Political Theology which, according to Em…

The Changing Face of Zambia's Christianity and its Implications for the Public Sphere
Researchers have described President Chiluba's political victory in 1991 and his subsequent Christian Nation declaration as the outcome of the rise of Charismatic Christianity in Zambia. While appreciating the resurgent attention to the role of religion in Zambian politics, we are concerned about recent generalising interpretations of the significance of Pentecostalism in Zambia's public domain. Should it be the dominant analytical lens through w…
