About the Author

Johan Gous is a Bible-believing Christian who serves different denominations that acknowledge Jesus, Christ as the Son of God and Savior in a personal relationship. He is a member of City Church in Charlottesville, Virginia. Working in the Durban harbor as an electrical engineer on building and repairing electrical systems on ships, Johan was exposed to the dark side of the world. Hearing Brother Andrew (aka God’s Smuggler) speak about persecution of the Body of Christ opened his heart for serving in a walk of faith to wherever God called, and he has now served forty years in Ministry leadership. Johan resides in Charlottesville, VA and spends a significant amount of time in ministry in Johannesburg, Pretoria, and Durban, South Africa.
