Book excerpt: Transforming the Lutheran Church in Liberia By: Dr. Alexander Yarmie Sumo Drawing upon insights from past and present Liberian leaders, Transforming The Lutheran Church in Liberia offers bold proposals for reconceptualizing, sustaining, and expanding the mission and ministry of the Lutheran Church in Liberia (LCL) while offering an incisive challenge to Western Lutheran churches wishing to accompany the LCL in its mission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Liberia's Offering: Being Addresses, Sermons, Etc On my return to St. Thomas, I was apprenticed to the tailoring business, with a provision allowing me to attend school in the morning and the shop in the afternoon, and so continued for five years. In 1845, Rev. John P. Knox, now pastor of a Presbyterian Church at Newtown, Long Island, came to St. Thomas and took charge of the Reformed Dutch Church. With others of my companions I became a member of a Bible-class under his instruction, and thus was formed a friendship which was of great benefit to me, and gave a turn to all my life. I was fond of composition and often indulged myself in attempts in that way. I was accustomed to take copious notes of his sermons, which especially attracted his attention, and led him to encourage me to prepare for the ministry, after I had formally joined his church, in which I had been baptized and brought up. In 1850, when Mrs. Knox was about to return to the United States he encouraged me to come also, with the hope of securing for me admission to one of the colleges in this country. I found, however, the deep-seated prejudice against my race, exercising so controlling an influence in the institutions of learning, that admission to them was almost impossible. Discouraged by the difficulties in my path, I proposed to return to St. Thomas, and abandon the hope of an education, when I received from Mrs. Knox a letter so full of interest in my welfare, and so urgent that I should still strive to become fitted for usefulness in the Christian ministry, and render my life useful to Africa, that I relinquished my purpose of returning to my parents. I decided to accept, of the offer of the New-York Colonization Society to furnish me a passage to Liberia, in hopes to enjoy the advantages of the Alexander High School, then beginning its noble work, at Monrovia, the capital of the Republic. By the Liberia packet from Baltimore, December 21, 1850, I was safely conveyed to the continent of my fathers and my race, reaching Monrovia, January 26, 1851. Arriving in Liberia, an entire stranger, without a single letter of introduction, I was received with great kindness by the people. Especially do I remember the cordial welcome and hospitable treatment extended to me by Mr. B. V. R. James and his family.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection introduces and explores "watershed discipleship" as a critical, contextual, and constructive approach to ecological theology and practice, and features emerging voices from a generation that has grown up under the shadow of climate catastrophe. Watershed Discipleship is a "triple entendre" that recognizes we are in a watershed historical moment of crisis, focuses on our intrinsically bioregional locus as followers of Jesus, and urges us to become disciples of our watersheds. Bibliographic framing essays by Myers trace his journey into a bioregionalist Christian faith and practice and offer reflections on incarnational theology, hermeneutics, and ecclesiology. The essays feature more than a dozen activists, educators, and practitioners under the age of forty, whose work and witness attest to a growing movement of resistance and reimagination across North America. This anthology overviews the bioregional paradigm and its theological and political significance for local sustainability, restorative justice, and spiritual renewal. Contributors reread both biblical texts and churchly practices (such as mission, baptism, and liturgy) through the lens of "re-place-ment." Herein is a comprehensive and engaged call for a "Transition church" that can help turn our history around toward environmental resiliency and social justice, by passionate advocates on the front lines of watershed discipleship.

Download or read book Developing Missional Church Leaders Through Spiritual Fathering in Liberia written by Joshua Nador and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liberia, Africa’s oldest republic was literally founded for mission. However, the lack of missional leaders in Liberia has hindered the capacity of the church to develop a missional church culture where God’s people can fully participate in the missio Dei. This dissertation explores the development of missional leaders in Liberia with the goal to understand how pastoral leaders and church culture can impact the development of missional leaders in Liberia. In part I, I argue from the literature that missional leadership development utilizing a spiritual fathering approach is vital for a missional culture in the Liberian church. Part II presents case studies utilizing active interviews, participant observation, and surveys to study the impact of pastoral leaders and church culture on mission-centered discipleship in Liberia. From the data, I submit that in order to see God’s people in Liberia develop a missional church culture in which they fully participate in the missio Dei, missional leaders should be developed in the context of community, utilizing spiritual fathering as an approach. In part III, I develop a model for the cultivation of missional culture that focuses on developing missional leaders through spiritual fathering in the context of community. I also offer a one-year development plan that seeks to help pastors and church leaders in Liberia develop missional leaders through spiritual fathering.
