Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is an historical work that reflects on the good, the bad and the ugly experiences of a Southern Baptist missionary, T. J. Bowen and the relevant applications for African missions and contemporary missionaries. The significance of the study lies on the ability to pioneer missions among the people of strange culture, language, colour and values successfully. This book researches into problems observable in the life and works of Bowen that need clarification. They are problem of contextualizing mission, developing means and strategy for language barriers, mission funding and support, neglecting education as mission tool and ill-health challenges of missionaries which usually truncate dreams. This book, however, interacts with Nigerian Baptist Mission under GMB and her relationship with local churches on how to strengthen missionaries with SWOT Analysis. This book recommends suggested ways for African mission boards and agencies to be pragmatic in strategic making, be aware of the psychological welfare of her missionaries and provide a health insurance scheme for serving missionaries. When Mission Board and local churches hold hands together, missionaries will strive better on the field. Mission is still young in Africa dark soil, we only need men, methods and materials to grow gospel as God increases the open-doors for mission.

Excerpt: ...and taciturn, and we were glad to find ourselves safely beyond their borders. By the evening of the second day we had passed the northern boundary of the dreaded Ijebu country, and entered the territory of our friends, the Egbds. Soon after reaching Abbeokuta, the remainder of our party were laid up with African fever. Mr. Lacy's eyes were so much affected that he returned home to avoid total blindness. Mr. Dennard returned to Lagos to begin a station there for tlie purpose of forwarding supplies to the interior. His wife died of fever early in January, and he then removed to Abbeokuta, where he died in June, 1854. He had obtained land for a station at Abbeokuta, but had not yet commenced building. The station is to be resumed. About two months after landing at Lagos, myself and wife proceeded alone and sorrowful to Ijaye, to begin the Yoruba mission. Mr. Mann, of the Church Missionary Society, had preceded us by several months. Kumi welcomed me back to Ijaye, and told me that my land and the boxes I had left in his charge, were all safe. I rented two rooms in a native house, to live in till I could build. They wore about seven feet wide, and scarcely eix feet high to the ceiling, with very low doors, and no windows. The heat was intolerable, especially to my wife, who was in bad health, and not accustomed to African weather. But there was no remedy, except in building a better house; and to this work I devoted myself with so much zeal, that I had little time, and, I confess, but little inclination to preach, for several months. The first labor was to clear the land of bushes and wild sugar-cane, a gigantic and useless sorghum twenty feet high. Some of the chiefs volunteered their people to assist me; but I found this plan so uncertain...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Religion and the Making of Nigeria, Olufemi Vaughan examines how Christian, Muslim, and indigenous religious structures have provided the essential social and ideological frameworks for the construction of contemporary Nigeria. Using a wealth of archival sources and extensive Africanist scholarship, Vaughan traces Nigeria’s social, religious, and political history from the early nineteenth century to the present. During the nineteenth century, the historic Sokoto Jihad in today’s northern Nigeria and the Christian missionary movement in what is now southwestern Nigeria provided the frameworks for ethno-religious divisions in colonial society. Following Nigeria’s independence from Britain in 1960, Christian-Muslim tensions became manifest in regional and religious conflicts over the expansion of sharia, in fierce competition among political elites for state power, and in the rise of Boko Haram. These tensions are not simply conflicts over religious beliefs, ethnicity, and regionalism; they represent structural imbalances founded on the religious divisions forged under colonial rule.
