A study was carried out on innovative and contextualization of Christianity by African christian teachers in 40 secondary school communities in Nyandarua county, Kenya. Notably, emerging religious trends, ways in which they influence doctrine, faith and practices of christian teachers, strengths or weaknesses introduced by emerging doctrinal teachings, faiths or practices on capacity to contextualize personal faith within school communities and viable strategies to minimize the challenges in order to contextualize particularistic doctrines, faiths and practices were identified.
