said Manoj Pradhananga of National Christian Fellowship.
“RSP has not spoken much about religious freedom… We can be hopeful but not certain.”

African Churches Outpace Leader Training – Faithful Educators Seek God’s Guidance in Revival Potential
Faith Facts
- The Association for Christian Theological Education in Africa (ACTEA) celebrates its 50th anniversary in Bishoftu, Ethiopia, under the theme “Future Ready, Mission Faithful.”
- Rapid church growth across Africa outpaces theological training, leaving many pastors without formal education.
- ACTEA promotes accreditation, modular programs, online learning, and church partnerships to equip biblically grounded leaders.
The General Assembly unites educators from 31 countries, including Association of Evangelicals in Africa leaders, to address cultural shifts, technology, and ministry demands.
This milestone honors ACTEA’s 1976 founding to ensure evangelical institutions uphold high standards amid continent-wide revival.
“Church growth in Africa has been phenomenal, but theological education has not grown at the same pace,” Tarus said.
“The challenge is how to train enough leaders while maintaining strong theological standards.”
“The church in Africa needs leaders who are both spiritually grounded and theologically equipped,” he said.
