Product Description
"Recent decades have provided Christians with an increasing interaction with various world religions. The growth of immigration from non-Christian nations combined with a greater global awareness through travel and communication have confronted Diaspora Christians with the reality of diversity in faith, culture and practices. This book which is in your hand will remind you that many men and women in the Bible served God even more tremendously in a foreign land than in their own home country. Reading this book will help Diaspora Christians to mobilize their minds and hearts to see the evangelistic purpose of God for them and their church in whatever country they are in. But this book is not only for Diaspora churches. It is also for "Welcomer" churches, since it will help them to understand how to integrate with the Diaspora churches, to cooperate and recognize their common ground of mission with the intention of reaching the lost together."Pastor Daniel Habte Eritrean Church Planter Amarillo, Texas"This is a great piece of work that must be made available for Africans to read. Abeneazer has carefully outlined our challenges we face or mistakes we do as African Christians."Owusu Ansah Boakye Ghanaian PhD Candidate, Texas State University "This book is an important contribution to the Diaspora Church which represents a massive amount of observation and careful thinking. Abeneazer inspires and re-energizes the Diaspora Church Christians to share the Gospel with others with love and passion regardless of the challenges facing the Church today. As a Diaspora Christian in Europe, I have found the book to be eye-opening and it gives me a fresh perspective on the greatest mission of all." Engineer Mintesinot T. WodajoSweden"This book helps us to see the Gospel as the solution for the needs and challenges of the African Diaspora. Having lived in both Africa and America, in both lack and abundance, I have seen that material things have never changed a person's life for eternity. Only the Gospel does. The legacy that we want to pass on to future African descendants is a life transformation which comes from fully embracing the Gospel of Jesus Christ." Emmanuel Ambane Cameroonian minister among International StudentsOld Dominion University, Virginia Beach, VA"Abeneazer has done it - he has enlightened us on how to bear much fruit in the West as Diaspora cross-cultural evangelists. This is a book that will challenge, encourage and move us forward with an agenda that is God-centered and Christ-exalting and driven by the Holy Spirit." Kennedy MulingeKenyan Assistant DirectorSouth Carolina Christian Chamber of Commerce"It is a book that should be read by everyone who profess Jesus Christ as his Savior and Lord, since every believer in the Son of God is a 'Diaspora' for he is living in the earthly world, longing for a better country- the heavenly one. For those who are planning to get engaged in cross cultural mission work, it is all the more a must read one."Blene MoltotalFormer Chairwoman of EvaSUE Board
