In this book Sveinung Johnson Moen presents a very fascinating
subject, a snake cult among the Mongwande people in the northern
part of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Going beyond a mere
anthropological description, he brings the subject in relation to
the snake concept in Scripture and reflects on the opportunities
and fallacies of missionary ministry. Even though his experiences
go back to the 1950s (that is the end of the colonial period), his
reflections on contextualization situate him rather in the first
decade of the twenty-first century. Sveinung Moen draws the reader
into an interdisciplinary endeavour of very original reflections on
cultural anthropo logy, sociology, theology, and missiology. He
does this by using many case studies and stories which make the
book a piece of fascinating literature.
