Abstract
Zimbabwe gained political independence in 1980, but the initial achievements of Robert Mugabe’s government were short‐lived. Zimbabwean Christians have responded to the country’s crisis in various ways, including: avoiding political engagement, moral indifference, aggression and hostility, and prophetic engagement. Christians who pursue prophetic engagement believe that stubborn political authorities must always be confronted and held accountable—but in a manner that does not lose sight of the moral ends being pursued. Zimbabwean churches have a moral duty to contribute to the creation of a social, economic, political, and cultural context that facilitates the growth and fulfillment of every person.
