This contribution explores the possibilities of queering redemptive masculinities within African Christian contexts by critically engaging dominant constructions of masculinity in Pentecostal faith communities. In many Christian settings, masculinities are framed through cisheteropatriarchal interpretations of biblical masculinity that promote a singular normative model of male identity. Such frameworks reinforce gender hierarchies while leaving little room for alternative expressions of masculinity and embodiment. The first part of the paper draws on empirical research with born-again Pentecostal men in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, examining how participants navigate and negotiate their masculinities at the intersection of religion, media, and culture. Employing a participatory methodology, including individual interviews, focus groups, and autophotography, the study foregrounds masculinity as an embodied and socially negotiated experience. The findings reveal the complex tensions through which men attempt to reconcile faith-based narratives of transformation with persistent cultural expectations and patriarchal privilege. The second part of the contribution places these findings in conversation with queer theological and critical masculinity scholarship. By queering the notion of "redemptive masculinity," the paper explores how Christian discourses of transformation may both reproduce and destabilise cisheteronormative gender regimes. Rather than viewing Pentecostal masculinity solely as a site of reinforcement of inequality, the analysis considers how faith practices and narratives of conversion may open spaces for reimagining masculinity otherwise. In doing so, the contribution highlights the potential of queer analytical lenses for rethinking masculinity, embodiment, and transformation within African Christian contexts.
