Abstract
Description
Currently, research on Urban Mission plays a central role in Missiology studies. Following this trend, this dissertation examines the impact of transformational evangelical churches in two cities in Angola in an attempt to investigate and assess trends in church mission in two selected cities.
The study begins with an introductory structure of each of the seven chapters in the research development. This establishes a basis for examining the links between them. A thorough analysis of the links between an urban transformational church and its respective brands follows, then the socioculturalsociocultural contexts in which
selected local churches respond and impact. The study deals with the identification of churches to what extent they are or are not transformational in the face of major problems, challenges of cities and, finally, summarizes the findings of the study and draws a series of conclusions and their meanings. It also proposes some implications and recommends other issues to be addressed in the light of the results. The aim is to identify the unique and relevant ways the church impacts different sociocultural contexts.
The analysis suggests finding answers from the sociocultural context of the cities. This data will show how effective the local churches were in the context of the cities of the selected churches
