Christopher's Presentation on Diaspora in Africa

I told you yesterday about my son's debut lecture on diaspora missiology.  Well, as promised, I wanted to make available his presentation and a little video that we shot that night (cuts off at the end, so you miss the last few minutes).  Let me stress that this is more than mere scrapbooking. Christopher's presentation actually contains some really good information and models pretty well the kind of missiological thinking we need much more of.  Consider his pattern which involves:

  1. Defining key terms and concepts
  2. Theological reflection
  3. Data gathering and analysis
  4. Missiological conclusions drawn and practical actions suggested
Nice work, eh?

Well, without further ado, here is the video.  You can also download his PowerPoint here.
