SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This dissertation argues that Boko Haram (BH) has affected the image of the Church, and hindered effective glocalization and retransmission of the gospel in Nigeria. This development has provoked Nigerian Baptists towards violent response, departing from biblical precedence of spirituality and abandonment of missions with far reaching implication locally and globally.
