摘要

本文探讨了建立自己的教会的呼吁是如何让女性颠覆和挑战规定的性别角色的。它专注于非洲发起的教会,包括非洲独立教会和五旬节派魅力教会。虽然妇女在这些教会中的重要性得到了广泛承认,但对女性教会创始人如何获得和保持其领导地位的问题却很少关注。根据历史案例以及在南非和尼日利亚对创始人和教会领袖的采访,本文展示了魅力四射的权威和教义独立女性是如何通过这一呼吁获得的,不仅使她们的地位合法,而且使她们能够挑战社会和教义规范,从而将自己从传统的性别角色中解放出来。然而,它也讨论了在某些情况下,妇女是否没有充分利用自己的权力来维护权力。

‘I Got the Call – Not Him’
This paper examines how the call to found their own churches has allowed and enabled women to subvert and challenge prescribed gender roles. It focuses on African Initiated Churches including both African Independent and Pentecostal Charismatic churches. While the importance of women in these churches is widely acknowledged, less attention has been given to the question of how female church founders gain and maintain their leadership positions. Drawing on historical cases as well as on interviews with founders and church leaders conducted in South Africa and Nigeria, this paper shows how the charismatic authority and doctrinal independence women gain through the call not only legitimate their position but enable them to challenge social and doctrinal norms and thus emancipate themselves from traditional gender roles. However, it also discusses whether in some cases women did not fully use their authority in order to keep it.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Religion in Africa was founded in 1967 by Andrew Walls. In 1985 the editorship was taken over by Adrian Hastings, who retired in 1999. His successor, David Maxwell, acted as Executive Editor until the end of 2005. The Journal of Religion in Africa is interested in all religious traditions and all their forms, in every part of Africa, and it is open to every methodology. Its contributors include scholars working in history, anthropology, sociology, political science, missiology, literature and related disciplines. It occasionally publishes religious texts in their original African language.
