Hope, aspirations and drives to the future are the focus of a recent academic concern about the multiple ways in which people are thinking and producing their future in a time of great uncertainty. By exploring the peculiar ways in which Evangelical believers in Guinea-Bissau are engaged in thinking their future, this article aims to portrait Evangelical Christianity as a source of hopes, aspirations and visions of possible futures in contemporary Africa. Moreover, by comparing the program of cultural and social regeneration pursued by nationalists in the 1960s-70s, and the current Evangelical project of personal and collective redemption, I argue that Evangelical churches are promoting today a politics of hope that translates Amílcar Cabral’s legacy in their own terms. Finally, I show how, in front of the failure of nationalist narratives, Evangelical churches are fostering an emerging conceptualization of modernity as connectivity, underlying new dreams of a better future.
