基督教虽然是外来宗教信仰，但基督教的非洲化进程使其在非洲获得快速发展，“非洲基督教”这一称谓本身便彰显了其在非洲的适应能力。在非洲社会的现代化进程中，基督教呈现出世俗化倾向，并且以更加包容和进取的姿态继续在社会公共领域发挥作用，扩展影响。目前，非洲是全球基督教徒增长最快的地区，2018年非洲基督教徒人数达到6.31亿人，居全球各大洲基督教徒人数的首位。从趋势上看，基督教在非洲仍有较大的拓展空间，其发展前景一方面取决于其对社会转型的适应力，尤为重要的是取决于其自身社会价值的体现。
Although Christianity is a foreign religious belief，the process of Africanization of Christianity has enabled it to develop rapidly in Africa. The title of African Christianity itself demonstrates its adaptability in Africa. In the process of modernization of African society，Christianity has shown a tendency to secularization，and in a more inclusive and enterprising manner，it continues to play a role in the public sphere of society and expand its influence. At present，Africa is the fastest-growing region for Christians in the world. In 2018，the number of Christians in Africa reached 631 million，ranking first in the number of Christians on all continents. On trend of development，Christianity still has a large room for expansion in Africa. Its development prospects depend on its adaptability to social transformation，and depend on especially its own social value.
