This book talks about some significant experiences during my childhood and how God has formed me for a future life in Africa and as ADRA executive director. It shows how one can break out of a typical professional career into volunteer missionary work in Africa. After returning home from Africa for good, I worked for a large civil engineering company managing multimillion Swiss Francs projects. Successfully I started my own planning company before I got called back into denominational work to be the executive director of an ADRA country office and later of an ADRA division office. I traveled intensively in African countries, the Middle East, Afghanistan, and North Korea during my career. I have been a resident in 7 countries (Cameroon, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Zaire, Rwanda, Turkey, and Switzerland) and have traveled to 66 countries. The book explains how I depended on my relationship with God and on daily prayer.weiterlesen
