Review "This book, a collection of sixty-five sermons and addresses in English, together with the studies of context, method and style which characterize them is unquestionably a national asset with international implications. It represents an excellent example of historical, sociological and theological research much needed in the restoration of dignity and value to a people in search of authenticity, one of Dr. Amu's cherished values. I recommend it to be read by all, especially those interested in African Personhood, Christianity in Africa, African Christian Social Ethics, Preaching, Worship and Practical Theology" - Emmanuel Yartekwei Amugi Lartey L. Bevel Jones III Professor of Pastoral Theology, Care and Counseling, Candler School of Theology, Emory University, Atlanta, GA. USA"Brilliant! highly readable, well-sectioned, rich in documentation, analytical and full of fascinating insights into the potential of Culture to inspire self-assurance, and patriotism as props for the task of nation-building. The book will resonate with all who are irked by the prevailing traumas of corruption, selfishness and greed in our society today." - Robert Addo Fening Retired Professor of History and former Head of History Department, University of Ghana, Legon About the Author Prof Philip Laryea is a minister of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana and Associate Professor of African Theology at the Akrofi-Christaller Institute of Theology, Mission and Culture, Akropong-Akuapem.
