South Africa is an incredible country known as the rainbow nation: 49.3 million people of diverse origins, cultures, languages (11 official languages) and beliefs. Two-thirds of South Africans call themselves ‘Christian’, although many churches combine Christian and ancestral worship. Many non-Christians also follow these traditional beliefs (the so-called African Independent Churches). There are a number of other significant religions in South Africa such as Islam, Hinduism and Judaism etc. It is said that South Africa is home to the largest mosque, Hindu temple, and Buddhist temple south of the equator.¹ God has called the church to be the ‘salt and light’in this darkness, and bring transformation both within South Africa and beyond. This calls for the frontier missional church.
