Abstract:

This paper drawing to the foundations of both Presbyterian and Reformed church polity principles, evaluates the constitution of the Reformed Church in East Africa providing a proposed church order for the future of RCEA. The distinctiveness of church law is that it must also derive from the Bible what entails Christ’s will for His church and then implement it for contemporary times (Coertzen, 1998, p. 7). In Church and Order, A Reformed Perspective the principles of Reformed Church law and church government are exclusively and extensively treated as well as the historical development of Reform

Abstract:

AbstractChristian churches are not abstract or ethereal institutions; they impact people’s daily decisions, weekly rhythms, and major life choices. This paper explores the continued importance of Lutheran, Presbyterian, and Anglican church membership for East African women. While much recent scholarship on Christianity in Africa has emphasized the rising prominence of Pentecostalism, I argue that historic, mission-founded churches continue to represent important sources of community formation and support for congregations. Using oral interviews with rural and urban women in Nairobi and norther

Abstract:

Abstract John Gachango Gatũ (1925–2017) was one of the most prominent and important Kenyan church leaders of his generation. He was the first African to serve as general secretary of the Presbyterian Church of East Africa, and then went on to be moderator. He also held influential positions in numerous Christian organizations, including the All Africa Conference of Churches and the World Council of Churches. He is best remembered for his call, first issued in 1971, for a moratorium on Western missionaries and resources in the developing world. At the time, this controversial proposal also led

Abstract:

This study sought to investigate the factors responsible for the persistence of moral decadence among the youth in PCEA Chuka Presbytery in spite of the measures taken by PCEA to curb it. Moral decadence among the youth has been rampant globally. Research and media reports indicate that a high percentage of youths indulge in anti-social vices such as indecent dressing, drug abuse, pre-marital sex, violence and crime, among others. Despite interventions by religious organisations, government sectors and other actors, the persistence of moral decline among the youth continues to be a threat to s

Abstract:

Project monitoring and evaluation approaches when implemented are the watch dog of success of projects. Most monitoring systems are not meeting their obligatory requirements as decision making tools. Instead, their activities have been viewed as controlled by a bureaucratic management. In other cases, project monitoring and evaluation has been viewed as a donor and not necessarily a management requirement in the enhancement of program success. This study sought to determine the effect of monitoring and evaluation approaches on implementation of projects in Presbyterian Church of East Africa, N

Abstract:

This essay explores conversion to the East African Revival as a way that Gikuyu women and men argued about moral and economic change. Rural capitalism in the 1930s and 1940s attacked the material basis of Gikuyu gender order by denying some men land. Familial stability was at stake in class formation: landless laborers could scarcely be respectable husbands. Rural elders and revivalists offered contending answers to the terrifying problem of gender trouble. Literate male elders at Tumutumu Presbyterian church used customary law and church bureaucracy to discipline young men and women. Revivali
