" I Love Idi A m in” is the startling title of the third book authored by Festo Kivengere. He described this one as a story o f how God uses "pain and suitering to build a new man and a new church for His glory."

Education, and Training for Ugan dan Relugecs N ow ), which is c u rre n tly operated by dedicated committees in several countries Come in at your convenience h was night when they came.

The eye's a better pupil and more willing than the ear; Fine counsel is confusing, but examples always clear. And the best of all the preachers are the men who live their creeds, For to see the good in action is what everybody needs. I can soon learn how to do it if you'll let me see it done. I can watch your hands in action, but your tongue too fast may run. And the lectures you deliver may be very wise and true, But I'd rather get my lesson by observing what you do. For I may misunderstand you, and the high ad vice you give, But there's no misunderstanding how you act and how you live.
