Description

Explore the complex history of the Basel Mission in the Gold Coast (modern-day Ghana) through this scholarly work by Miller. This book examines the period leading up to the First World War, providing a detailed reconstruction of the motivations and backgrounds of the mission's participants. Readers will learn about the specific organizational structures that governed activities both at home and abroad. The text traces how internal struggles often stemmed from strict Pietist beliefs regarding authority and obedience. Despite these recurrent organizational contradictions, the mission maintained its presence and expanded its impact in Ghana. This study offers a deep look into how a specific biblical worldview shaped the discipline of mission members. It provides historical context for understanding the institutional growth and the lasting influence of the Basel Mission during this transformative era.
