Abstract
African culture was affected by the propagation of the gospel. Pre-colonial Africans easily identified as Africans as informed by their highly religious cultures but the coming of Christianity and the subsequent notion of conversion together with denominationalism affected this obvious identification. Based on available literature, this paper has two main purposes; to highlight the role of culture and to locate the position of denominationalism in the affirmation of ‘African’ identity among African Christians. It suggests that denominations have a role to play in dislodging dual identity among African Christians. It recommends further investigation on the contribution of African Initiated Churches (AICs) to improving African Christian identity.
