Arise Africa

Lamin Sanneh notes the rise of Christianity in Africa:

“In 1970 there were 120 million Christians, estimated; in 1998 the figure jumped to just under 330 million; and in 2000 to 340 million. The projections call for over 600 million Christians in twenty-five years. If those projections are right–and I will not go to the scaffold for them–apart from South America, Africa will have more Christians than any other continent, and that for the first time.” (Whose Religion is Christianity?, p41)
