Abstract

While exercising ministry in my home country, Cameroun, I have lived the negative effects of the internal confusion that can sometimes bedevil human life and the external chaos that can envelop society because of war. The case in point which I consider throughout this thesis is that of James Fonyuy, who experienced the death of his parents and family members. The Savage hostility in my country and many other African countries has clearly revealed to me the troubling dichotomy between faith professed and faith lived.
