Out of Africa [Paperback]

C. Peter Wagner (Editor), Joseph Thompson (Editor), John Eckhardt (Foreword)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 2003

Nigeria-once a hopelessly beleaguered society-has risen from the ashes and is a spiritually revived nation. One of the main contributors to this book states: "It is safe to say that the Church and effectual prayers have kept our nation from complete anarchy and genocide. The impact of Christianity is evident wherever you go. If you look a little deeper, listen a little closer, you will see and hear the myriad changes that are subtlety transforming our nation into a nation that truly fears the Lord." The miraculous is evident in the Church of Nigeria. Out of Africa offers the testimony of numerous Nigerian pastors who are making a difference for God all over the world. Learn from churches who are experincing a radical move of God. What God is doing in that nation, we pray will also happen in America.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth The Read to See How God is Moving in Nigeria, November 17, 2007

This review is from: Out of Africa (Paperback)

Came across this book a couple years ago, and really enjoyed it. Each chapter was submitted by individuals ministering and working in Nigeria. It is very eye-opening to learn of God's tremendous move over there - for example, literally hundreds of thousands gathering regularly for prayer meetings. In short, the book is worth the time and money to read. The Lord used it as a means of a great inspiration to me.
