Christ and Achimota Sermon Preached At the Staff Service on July 8th 1945

Abstract

We preach not ourselves but Christ Jesus as Lord and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. 2 COR. IV, 5. Those words, which form part of Paul's description of his own ministry, may well serve as a statement of the essential duty of a Chris tian teacher. Daily it becomes more essential that we-teachers in a Christian school-should try to define our task, for we are now in an age of transition when events move so quickly, almost of their own momentum, that it is only by a conscious effort that we can pause to consider what the principles which should guide their course are. An age of transition - yes, for the Gold Coast not less than for the world as a whole, and, not least, for Achimota.
