Good News To The Poor: A Model For Holistic Ministry In Bunyore, Kenya, Moses Alela
Good News To The Poor: A Model For Holistic Ministry In Bunyore, Kenya, Moses Alela

The model presented here is faithful to biblical truth and culturally relevant. If well implemented, the model can help Christians in Bunyore meet both their spiritual and physical needs, thereby demonstrating that Good News is indeed good to those in extreme poverty.
