#199 – Africa to the Rest: from mission field to mission force 🗓
With Dr Yaw Perbi
Africa is the most Christian continent in the world today. This talk will celebrate this momentous occasion in world history tracing God’s goodness to Africa in Scripture and throughout history, clearly demonstrating that Africa and Africans have always been central to God's missional purposes, not an afterthought.
We will unveil the teeming potentials as well as teething problems of African mission. This African lead in global Christianity is only going to increase into the foreseeable future, thus these projections call for preparation in order to produce the quantity and quality of African Christians who will be faithful carriers of the authentic gospel to all nations!
