I am preparing three seminary courses for the second semester of 2026. The seminary is largely African. I am therefore deliberately seeking out African materials. My reading matter is about 30% African. My video materials are approaching 20% African. OBSERVATION: The biggest problem is the amount of African materials available (not). Apparently 5% of written materials -- theological materials -- is African. Apart from a want of materials, though, there are other problems. Black authors and producers are so often prophets, apostles, self-made people. They often adopt non-mainstream theologies, too. But one needs African input. It may be substantially different to Western fare, and balances it out.
