Parris on Africa and the Gospel

As an atheist, I truly believe Africa needs God | Matthew Parris – Times Online.

This really is an amazing article. As one who has become used to journalists and commentators presenting such a jaundiced view of Christianity, it is refreshing. Parris is not simply seeing that missionaries bring social benefits but have, ‘unfortunately’, passed on faith as well. He sees that when the gospel is received, people are changed inwardly, and it shows on the outward life, in a way that is beneficial to wider society.
