Synopsis

If God breaks your leg, He will teach you how to limp.
- African (Ghana) Proverb

The harsh reality is that our western perceptions of Africa have been tainted by many things as we tend to view this continent as, mystical, dark, complex, traumatized, and even violent. Perhaps it is time to take a fresh look at our existing stereotypes, to examine what God has done and is now doing in Africa, in order to see what we in the West might learn from the fastest growing church in the world.
