Episode notes

This chapter delves into the Theo Global initiative, promoting theological discussions among scholars from non-Western regions like Africa and the Middle East. It highlights the initiative's efforts to foster meaningful engagement and collaboration, reflecting the diverse perspectives and rich cultural backgrounds of participating scholars. Additionally, the chapter underscores the transformative experiences shared during recent conferences, showcasing the value of cross-cultural dialogue in the evolution of global Christianity.

Earlier this summer, Hosts Michael Horton and Justin Holcomb spent two weeks in Egypt and Kenya with Theo Global, another project of Sola Media. This trip was part of Theo Global's annual efforts to gather leading theologians and biblical scholars from across the Middle East and then from East Africa to do theology together—so that the theological roots of the global church can grow strong.

The first episode of this series was recorded onsite in Kenya, where Mike and Justin sat down with Adam Smith, a PCA minister and the Chief Operating Officer at Sola Media who has led the Theo Global project since it began in 2015. This is Theology by and for the Global Church.
