Notes from 20 Sept 2012 AIMM Centennial Roundtable at Goda Cafe, Minneapolis, Minnesota
Pastor Benjamin Mubenga, Evangelical Mennonite Church of
Congo
“It is not good to cut the roots
of this tree which has now grown so grand.”
[The tense in this is off – it seemed convey more a sense of we are
preserving what is and celebrate it … not that it was actually threatened].
How can we bring the Good News
to the rest of Africa?
a.
Spiritual priorities
b.
Community development
Question: Many American
Evangelicals feel that the missionary focus should be on Evangelism and that
the church should not be distracted by social or economic development
issues. Would you agree or how would you
address such criticism?
