Worldview, Challenge of Contextualization and Church Planting in West Africa, Part 3: West African Worldviews

Abstract

(Editor’s note: this is the 3rd of a 4-part series on worldview in West Africa) I had argued strongly in a previous work that West Africans are culturally different from African Americans, and therefore require a different missiological approach in regard to presenting the gospel to those that have migrated to the United States and other parts of North America.1 In this article, I wish to share some the West African worldviews in general which most of their immigrants to the United States and Canada share in common.
