Decolonizing Mission, published in the UK in 2025, addresses one of the most pressing questions facing the global Church today: how can Christian mission be faithfully practised in a postcolonial world? While the book engages a global theological conversation, its questions are especially urgent for the African Church. The book begins in my own village of Magomero in Malawi, tracing the legacy of David Livingstone through the story of his grandson’s presence in the community. From this local history, the book reflects on the wider challenge of disentangling Christian witness from colonial power and recovering a vision of mission marked by theological confidence, historical clarity, and cultural integrity.

Across Africa today, churches are growing, theological institutions are expanding, and a new generation of Christian leaders is emerging. Yet many of the theological conversations shaping African Christianity remain inaccessible to those who most need them, often because of the high cost and limited availability of academic books on the continent. This project seeks to address that challenge by producing the first African print edition of Decolonizing Mission. While the current UK edition retails at approximately £30, this initiative will make it possible to produce a more affordable edition for distribution across East, Southern, and West Africa.

Our initial goal is to print and distribute 1,500 copies to pastors, theological colleges, mission leaders, and students across the continent. These copies will be made available through theological institutions, ministry networks, and Christian leaders who are shaping the future of mission in Africa.

Your support will directly enable the printing, subsidising, and distribution of this African edition. In doing so, you will help ensure that African pastors, students, and scholars can participate more fully in shaping the theology and practice of mission in their own contexts.

This is more than a publishing project. It is an investment in African theological leadership, in the formation of future Christian leaders, and in a vision of mission that is historically honest, culturally rooted, and theologically confident. We invite you to partner with us in bringing this important conversation into the hands of those who will carry the work of mission forward across the continent.
