  • “Why I am passionate about schools ministry” – Harold Makawa

    Here’s what Harold had to say about why schools ministry matters to him: Why do school visits matter?   Schools matter a lot to me for two reasons… First, this is the time when you meet students who are starting to mature. They don’t have much knowledge about salvation or the Bible. But they have open hearts to receive the gospel. The second thing is that many of these students do not have the background of the gospel in their homes. And so, when you preach to the students, it’s like you’re giving them the gospel for the first time.…

  • Book Recommendation: The Boy who Harnessed the Wind

    I’ve had the audiobook version of The Boy who Harnessed the Wind on my Audible playlist for a long time. I eventually got around to listening to it recently on a solo road trip. I instantly wished I’d done so earlier. The Boy who Harnessed the Wind is not a Christian book, but it is an entertaining and enlightening read (listen!!). It’s the story of William Kamkwamba, who like so many Malawian boys, had to drop out of school. Nevertheless, against all odds, he managed to teach himself to build a wind turbine and light his village home. It provides…

    Anna shares progress on the Bible Time Chichewa Translation Project Recorded October 2023 Transcript We’re continuing with translation and revision of the Bible time curriculum and we’ve just about completed the first year.
