Abstract
"Very simply the proverb is reminciing us that we can lose our ability to see with understanding. Like an uninfonned tourist cruising through a game park with no background in African mammals, the African Christian without an historical consciousness may look at a lot of things in the present but see and understand little. A lack of historical sense in the church can produce a shallowness in our understanding of the Bible, our culture and our own identity as a church today. "
