God's Calling

Abrahamu thought of all the children at Rethy Academy as his children. He would give each of the boys some fatherly advice when they left after tenth grade:"Utakwenda America. Utakwenda Université. Utakamata Bebe Yako. Utarudi Hapa Rethy""Go to America, go to university, take a wife and come back to Rethy."He didn't give any specifics. The instructions were part of his saying goodbye as was his request for shoes.Beginning with navigating relationships in America as a third culture kid, Paul Brown's life blossoms into serving God as a missionary in Africa. There, his journey is filled with endeavors such as leading the installation of a hydroelectric plant and establishing an FM radio station. All while raising a family of six kids with his wife Ellen Brown in a remote area of the world amid rising tribal tensions.In Paul's life, the willingness of God to use the weak appears again and again. The product is a testament to what God is able to do with a life surrendered wholly to him.
