The Christians in Nigeria often live in religious duality, the African tradition and Christian missionary tradition. The necessity of «inculturation» of the biblical message in the African context is the topic of the book.
Udoh would like a Christological approach - a Christ «from below». Christ appears in African symbols, at first only as a «guest», afterwards as «tribal kinsman», and finally as «Lord».
