Samuel Crowther and the Gospel in Nigeria with Kelly Kumbu (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Few people have heard of Samuel Crowther, but he was one of the most important missionaries to Nigeria. That’s because he was born there, so he knew the language and culture.

For many, the question posed by the church father Tertullian, "What has Athens to do with Jerusalem?," meant that Christians should not read the pagan classics. In reality, Tertullian read and appreciated many of these works! Join Linus and Leia as they talk with Dr. Nadya Williams about the importance of reading the classics as Christians.
