David Livingstone: Missionary, Explorer… or Pathfinder for Empire?

David Livingstone was a man of deep faith, fierce determination, and undeniable contradictions. Born in poverty in Scotland, he rose to become one of history’s most famous missionary-explorers, carrying the gospel to Africa while also mapping its vast interior. He fought tirelessly against the slave trade, inspired abolitionist movements back home, and left behind stories of courage—surviving a lion attack, crossing the continent, and discovering Victoria Falls. Yet, his maps and reports also paved the way for European colonization, making his legacy both an inspiration and a warning. His heart, quite literally, was buried in Africa, a symbol of his lifelong devotion to the continent he loved. Was he a saint or a scout for empire?
