Dr Sheila Akomiah-Conteh is a Ghanaian scholar based in Glasgow,  Scotland. She did her PhD at the University of Aberdeen and explored church growth in Scotland. To do this, she looked at new churches planted in Glasgow in the years between 2000 and 2016. She quickly realised that a majority of new churches in Glasgow are planted by  Africans. Of course, this is to a great extent representative of the church planting situation in Britain and has serious implications on how we talk about and research church growth in Europe nowadays. Of great interest to me, though, was her research process — she had to do some radical things to get her research done. This is one of the most insightful interviews in this series.
