Helping Kwakum Believers of Cameroon Understand Biblical Sexuality

This project was designed to help Kwakum believers of Cameroon understand biblical sexuality. Chapter 1 provides the context in which the project took place detailing the state of the church, especially in regard to sexual purity. Chapter 2 argues that God expects believers—even those from unreached people groups—to honor God in their sexuality, as evidenced in Paul’s writing to Corinthian church (1 Cor 5:1-13; 6:12-20; 7:5, 9, 36). This chapter also explains how Paul used theological truths to confront the Corinthians at the level of their cultural beliefs and values (1 Cor 6:18-20). Chapter 3 describes the impact of the Kwakum worldview on their sexual ethic. That is, their main belief is that everything exists for people, and their main value is power. Chapter 4 describes how the project confronted these beliefs and values with theological truths. Chapter 5 measures the success of the project based on the fulfillment of the specified goals and includes personal and theological reflections.
