Dr Caleb Nyanni is the Academic Dean at Birmingham Christian College. He is also the Lead Pastor at Sparkbrook Elim Christian Centre. He holds a  PhD from the University of Birmingham where he studied under the supervision of Professor Allan Anderson (who also supervised Caleb’s father’s PhD). Caleb explored spirit-talk among young members of the  Church of Pentecost in Britain. 

This conversation makes a very significant contribution to the discourse on the faith of young Africans in the diaspora. He shows us some of the ways the younger generation of  Africans in Britain think of their parents’ churches and what they want from the older generation if they are to follow God and impact the world in their generation.
