Introduction

On (c)entering allan boesak’s contribution on african christian preaching and decolonisation?. Critically examine Allan Boesak's contributions to African Christian preaching and decolonisation. Explore his work for insights into a selfless revolution and evolving theological thought.

Abstract

This article critically explores in a threefold manner what Allan Boesak’s oeuvre might contribute towards preaching and (the decolonisation of) decolonisation in our context. First, by way of breaking the ice, I shall introduce (my) Boesak’s attractive relevance for such an adventure. Hereafter, the underlining and mining of his work will result in a second movement of what seems to be central and centred for our quest. Lastly, as he helps us with movement, so too are we challenged to break further ground and enter (seemingly problematic) areas and ideas in his thought that might stir and spur us onwards. In sum, there will be talk of a selfless revolution, and a whisper, of where (how and why) to enter, centre, and decentre Boesak’s contribution towards preaching and (his “decolonisation” of) decolonisation.
