Evangelicals’ influence in Africa discussed in lecture tonight
Join us tonight (Monday) for a Liberal Arts and Critical Issues presentation in Hoover 105, as Joel Matthews from the Educational Concerns for Hunger organization presents “American Evangelicals Engaging Intelligently in African Development.” The same presentation will take place from 5 to 6 p.m. and again from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. Guests are asked to attend the later session.
The presentation will discuss how American evangelicals have made an enormous influence in the nature and direction of modernization in Africa, yet how this rarely leads to sustainable improvements for the poor. Among the questions he’ll tackle is, “What are evangelicals doing wrong and how can it be made right?” His presentation is the seventh in the “Majority World and the West” series.
