Fire In His Bones

This book is about Dr.Benson Idahosa's life and ministry. Your life will be changed once you have read the last pages of the book. I read it in 4 hours.

God used him to transform Nigeria and used him to evangelize and win the nation of Nigeria for Christ, and the rest of Africa. When Dr.Idahosa started his ministry only 4% of Nigerians were Christians. When he passed away in 1998 aged 59, 50% of the country were Christians.

Some people has that "something special" that sets them apart. Then there are few that God sets apart to reach nations - like Abraham, Elijah and Paul. In the 20th century, we can think of Billy Graham, Watchman Nee, Cho Yonggi and Benson Idahosa.

Dr.Idahosa is set apart by God to win nations for Christ - Nigeria and the rest of Africa. He is as T.S Osborn wrote, Africa's greatest ambassador of the Apostolic faith to the world.

A similar book that I have read (and moved me to tears as I read) is a book on Watchman Nee's life (Heroes of Faith Series). These people has something special.
