Coles A Letter To Africa About at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON

The horrific problems of Africa are well known. War, AIDS, disease and underdevelopment are but a few. Kasongo brings a whole new fresh approach to these issues. He has taken worldview theory and applied it to the African setting. In a bold and honest way he evaluates African culture in general and his Luba culture in particular in the light of the Good News of the Kingdom of God, Kasongo's analysis starts us on the road to consider how particular aspects of a worldview may be part of the problem and stand in the way of the solutions.
He challenges us to take the reign of God as the foundation of a new worldview. The result would call for changes in our cultural worldview that are not in harmony with God's will and detrimental to progress.
While Kasongo's work and book is addressing the African milieu, its application is much larger. For those of us who work in Africa, it gives us fresh insight in how to bring the Good News of Jesus Christ in a realistic way to a people so loved by God. For those whose frame of reference is outside of Africa, the model set forth in this volume is a good one to evaluate and challenge your own cultural worldview and thinking.
