  • African examples of decolonizing authentic Christian faith

    Participants at the Network for the History of Mission in Arusha April 2026 shared how they have learned to be more authentically their ethnic selves as they faithfully follow Christ. In contexts of increasing confidence in authentically ethnic Christianity as well as complex urban fellowship diversity, churches need leaders equipped to better navigate cultural difference, recognize hidden patterns of exclusion, and cultivate a genuinely shared life together in Christ.

  • Remembering the forgetten followers in a forgotten war

    Sudan's civil war continues to rage after three years of devastating conflict and Sudan's two million Christians face particular peril. Yet this conflict is largely overlooked compared to other conflict zones. It seems to be a crisis too complex, too distant, and too African to hold the Western gaze. God sees, however, so let us pray for peace in Sudan and protection especially for Jesus' followers among the Sudanese.
