Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram Daily Podcast The Gospel and Africa's Expansion - The Gospel and Africa's Expansion, Part 1
For many believers today, Africa is thought to be the ‘Dark Continent’ – without the saving light of the Gospel. However – in this program, you’ll discover why that’s no longer true. Join us as two members of the Living on the Edge International Team break down how Christianity has exploded across the Global South and highlight what believers worldwide can learn from the faith of those in Africa.
