Hear from the mind of a real-world missionary of over 20 years. From the rural village of Mbhokota in South Africa, Paul Schlehlein–or "Boti Paul / Mfundisi" (Brother Paul / teacher) as he is addressed in the podcast, hails from America, but has crossed the world, a culture, and a language group to minister to the Tsonga people of northern South Africa. His knowledge of the Scriptures, passion for church history, and lessons from the field shed light on issues of the faith, the family, and the fog of worldview confusion that plagues our day.
Wicknell Chivayo’s Crash: The Fragility of Life and the Futility of Wealth (TARIF 275)
What can the sudden death of a wealthy and influential man teach us about life, money, and eternity? In this episode of The Africa Review in Five, we reflect on the fragility of human life and the futility of wealth through the tragic death of Zimbabwean businessman Wicknell Chivayo.
Scripture reminds us that no amount of money, status, influence, or admiration can postpone death or prepare the soul for eternity. We explore three sobering lessons: God can take us in the prime of life, we must prepare for our departure, and we should live for God's approval rather than the applause of people.
