Primal spirituality is a way to explore the core of human spiritual experience, which involves activities, such as meditating, singing, dancing, drumming, or performing rituals. Africans can express any of this primal knowledge to enrich their Christian faith. Singing indigenous songs often serves as a vehicle for expressing this spirituality, which affirms communal identity and connection to the divine. Hence, their primal spiritual knowledge is conveyed through oral means such as singing accompanied by drumming, and dancing. Expressing primal spirituality helps them to present their spirit, soul, and body wholly to God. This primal spiritual condition is a personal quality before other religious beliefs, such as Christianity or Islam. Therefore, African Christianity is how to live the Christian faith and worship God within the African way of life, and not necessarily syncretising different systems of religious beliefs, but the expression of the soundness of Africanness. For this reason, the work has been grounded in the concept of Africanness in African Christianity, which is how Christianity communicates with African cultural heritage.
