I am excited that Dr. Ayuk Ausaji Ayuk has provided the global Church an African theology of missions from a rich African perspective. I am familiar with Dr. Ayuk’s work in Africa and around the world. We have worked together for several years on various projects on theological education and ministerial development in Africa. He is a professor at the Asian Seminary of Christian Ministries (ASCM) in the Philippines and serves as their Regional Director for Africa. Dr. Ayuk is originally from Nigeria and has a passion for the continent. He has helped ASCM establish a missional presence by providing theological education throughout Africa. Consequently, he is very familiar with the contexts of Africa. In addition, because of his education and research, he offers us a deep theological expertise for a vital African theology of missions.
