K. Mugambi's perception of, and participation in, theological education in Africa in different phases including, teaching, publishing, and leadership on diverse topics. The diverse topics include African religions, Christian theology in Africa, mission, ecology, ethics, social justice, ecumenism, academic publishing, and Christian leadership. Mugambi's name features prominently in the discourse on theologies of liberation and reconstruction in Africa, but there are other themes of African Christian theology on which he has made considerable contribution. Mugambi discusses the situation of the Church in Africa in the 21st century in The Biblical Basis for Evangelization: Theological Reflection Based on an Africa Experience. He concluded that the Church in East Africa and Africa as a whole "has come to existence and has grown evangelistically but not theologically". Theological education in Africa continues to encounter challenges due to lack of contextualized curricula. Book Name: Religion and Social Reconstruction in Africa
