After having made an existential analysis of the experience of God today, and realizing that it is possible, even in the midst of so many challenges to faith, we tried to outline the forms that this experience can take. It can be a conscious or unconscious experience. This will result in an approach to religious experience based on the African vision of God, where faith is understood as an anthropological phenomenon and only then as a religious one. We start from culture to return to culture. Therefore, one of the greatest challenges that arises when approaching the experience of God today is the evangelization of culture. The experience of faith always takes place in a particular culture and each culture is inevitably expressed in the experience of faith.
