The role of Caprivian virtues in the search for common moral discourse : a conversation with Peter J. Paris

[摘要] ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The study examines virtues in Caprivi that has to be taken seriously by the church. This offersa position to promote the religio-culture of the community within the growing Christianchurches. The call is to use story-telling in our liturgy to promote the cultural setting ofpassing on the message. The way preaching is currently done does not have similarity to theway the message of the gospel is to be told to the audience. The argument is therefore, that ifthe church wants to be relevant to the Caprivian community it should use the existingcommunity virtues. The assignments will includes reference to Peter Paris' book whosearches for an African and African American moral discourse. As the assignment will try toexamine these virtues there is a need for suggesting a contributing way forward, in whichCaprivian virtues can contribute to the virtues of the church.
