- Abstract
- This document tells how Liberian Christians moved from the point of feeling a need to contextualize the faith in their African culture to be able to do so through participatory Bible study. The author and nine members of St John's United Methodist Church in Gbarnga, Liberia, studied the book of Exodus and focused on issues of contextualization. They identified issues common to Hebrew and Kpelle cultures, and considered tribal elements such as proverbs, stories, idioms, and theology. The result was the production of a Bible study teacher's guide on Exodus, and an awareness by participants of anwers to their questions about how to make the Christian Church relevant in their context.
