Singing Theology from the Ground: Indigenous Hymnody and Global Christianity amplifies the voices from the ground by listening attentively to indigenous songs in local tongues from the Global South and those of indigenous people around the globe. Across the disciplines of ethnography, history and missiology, the book presents and analyzes these songs followed by theological and missiological reflections. It looks into the role of indigenous patterns in order to learn what these might mean for missiology/evangelism but also for their role in spiritual formation as a part of worship. It examines hymns, especially sung prayers, as an expression of 'primary theology' which is foundational for any possible developing contextual theology.
