This book will take you deep into African daily life with all of its hardships but
also into the beauty and joy that Africa has. It contains the stories and experiences
that Arnold and Elsie lived through, including the hardships from poverty, sickness,
witchcraft, wild animal attacks and even from corrupt governments like Idi Amin.
This is also an account about people's lives being changed through Christ and
how hundreds of churches were started and nations were changed forever by the
Gospel of Jesus Christ. The church in Africa is alive and strong today because people
like Arnold and Elsie Bowler sacrificed and responded to the call of God to give their
lives for others. Jesus said, "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his
life for his friends" (John 15:13 NASB). They gave their lives so they could sit where
others sat!
