The book addresses the issue of evangelization in Africa, which was a pressing concern during the early 20th century. Thornton examines the history of European contact with Africa and the role of Christianity in this process. He also discusses the challenges of evangelizing Africa, including the diversity of African cultures and the resistance of some groups to Christianity.Thornton argues that evangelization is necessary for the moral and spiritual development of Africa, and that it is the duty of European Christians to bring the gospel to the continent. He emphasizes the importance of education and the need to train African pastors and missionaries to continue the work of evangelization. The book also includes a discussion of the economic development of Africa and the role of Christian missions in promoting economic growth.Overall, Africa Waiting provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges and opportunities of evangelizing Africa at the turn of the 20th century.
