Africa, O Africa by Louise Robinson Chapman, Edited by Chuck and Doris Gailey
  • A story of incredible resilience and passionate faith in a country not her own, Louise Robinson Chapman’s Africa, O Africa is a reminder that God calls and sends people who are willing to say ‘Yes’ to His will.

Maps Beyond Geography ​by Stéphane Tibi
