—Rick Warren, pastor of Saddleback Church and author of The Purpose Driven Life
A publishing landmark. . . . Its foundation is biblical, its perspective African, and its approach to controversial questions balanced. I intend to use it myself in order to gain African insights into the Word of God. Indeed, I hope it will have a wonderful readership.

A rich and valuable contribution to biblical knowledge and understanding. I commend it to Christian leaders, not only in Africa but the world over.

A good and readable blend of excellent scholarship, heartwarming spirituality, and relevant application. It challenges African Christianity, and wider, to a necessary commitment of heart, mind, and will. Its target audience and the wider church will find it to be a useful treasure.
