Abstract
"The beginnings of African evangelical theology are closely linked with events at the Christian Education Strategy Conference that was held 25-31 January 1973 in Limuru, Kenya, immediately preceding the 2nd General Assembly of the Association of Evangelicals of Africa and Madagascar (now AEA) held at the same venue. It was at this Christian Education Strategy Conference that participants expressed an urgent concern regarding the lack of relevant theological reflection in their churches. They expressed a need for higher academic theological training to equip the church in its struggle with various challenges in Africa."
