Can you guess where the title of this book is taken from? – Just turn to Isaiah 50:4 where the prophet stands before God as His disciple: “The Lord God has given Me the tongue of disciples,… He awakens Me morning by morning, He awakens My ear to listen as a disciple.”
My good friend Jake was absolutely thrilled when he went through this book: a “Hidden Gem”, “The best book I ever read on discipleship” he resonated. Here is his summary:
“All too often the most important, most fundamental truths of the Christian faith are treated like abstract concepts that we seek to master intellectually. But theology was never meant to be something only debated in seminaries. Real theology is intensely practical. God meets us where we are, in the midst of our pain, our struggles, our doubts, and our questions.
Few books have been written that clearly and powerfully bridge the gap between the great truths of Scripture and life in the African context. By God’s grace, Henrik has written such a book. Drawing from his many encounters with the often raw and painful realities of life in Southern Sudan, Henrik brings the Christian message to bear on issues that are relevant to us in Africa; issues like …
►dealing with evil spirits, ►tribalism and racism, ►revenge and forgiveness, ►healing from traumatic experiences, ►pursuing a God-honouring in marriage in the midst of a male-dominated, polygamist culture…
You will read many well-told, often heart-breaking stories about life in Southern Sudan. Then, seamlessly, each story is brought into the light of God’s Word, where truth, wisdom, and hope are graciously applied. May your heart indeed be awakened as you see God’s Word powerfully and lovingly applied to life in the African context.”
