| Summary: | Anne Nasimiyu-Wasike lays out several challenges for us from the West, including the need to have a greater sensitivity and knowledge of the richness and complexity of the African culture. We must ask ourselves, how do we become involved in the culture where we live? Nasimiyu-Wasike touches on the historical negative influences that are affecting the political and economic life in Africa. We are called to enter the daily sufferings and deaths of the people in Africa if we follow Christ in his “hour of glory” as he faced his own suffering and death. This means that mutuality in mission demands new skills and attitudes so that we touch all aspects of the lives of people, that is, the social, economic, and political dimensions, as well as the religious and cultural. |
