An innovative study of Christianity and society in Cameroon that illuminates the history of faith and cultural transformation among societies living under French rule 1914 to 1939. Finalist for the 2019 Albert J. Raboteau Prize for Best Book in Africana Religions Between the two World Wars, the radical innovations of African Catholic and Protestant evangelists repurposed Christianity to challenge local and foreign governments operating in the French-administered League of Nations Mandate of Cameroon. Walker-Said explores how African believers transformed foreign missionary societies into profoundly local religious institutions with indigenous ecclesiastical hierarchies and devotional social and charitable networks,devising novel authority structures to control resources and govern cultural and social life. She analyses how African Christian religious leaders transformed social and labour relations, contesting forced labour and authoritarian decentralized governance as threats to family stability and community integrity. Inspired by Catholic and Protestant doctrines on conjugal complementarity and social equilibrium, as well as by local spiritual and charismatic movements, African Christians re-evaluated and renovated family and community authority structures to address the devastating changes colonialism wrought in the private sphere. The history of these reform-minded believers reveals howfamily intimacies and kinship ties constituted the force of community resistance to oppression and also demonstrates the relevance of faith in the midst of a tumultuous series of forces arising out of the colonial situation peculiar to Cameroon.

The Bible, the most published, sold, given away, personally owned, outlawed, read, neglected, loved, hated, praised, despised, book ever to have existed. Esteemed as the very words of God, renounced as merely the work of men, cherished as truth, scorned as fable. The studies in this volume are written to let the Bible speak for itself to clear away all the contradictions and debates. It is a book written for the common man conveying the unleavened common faith. This book explains what each of us must bring to the study of God's word if we desire that it open itself to us. Further, it demonstrates how and why the Scriptures are written the way they are. The Bible contains all that God has done, is doing, and will do. "Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets." Amos 3:7 The greatest indignity perpetrated against our Creator is not to seek to know and understand Him. Join me on a guided tour of God's word.
