If you want to know what we’re experiencing here in Swaziland, Africa, I highly recommend purchasing the book, “Scared” by Tom Davis. You can get it through Amazon or you can go to www.tomdavis.com. I read the book in a couple of days. Everything that we have witnessed or experienced is contained in this book. From the airport to the carepoints to the feelings that we are having — it’s in this book.
Tom Davis is the founder of Children’s Hope Chest. From what I understand, Children’s Hope Chest is run by Adventures in Missions Swaziland. Tom writes about a local pastor here in Swaziland. God used Pastor Walter to make a difference in the Swazi people. I was privileged to meet Pastor Walter and his children while attending the Timabli Crafts retreat this past weekend. Doyle ministered with Pastor Walter yesterday. Scared is an easy read, yet it is an extremely difficult book to wrap your head around. It will break your heart and in return compel you to be the body that we’re called to be.
I agree! As someone who has lived in Swaziland and then visited last year with CHC, I can verify that it is an accurate portrayal of both the beauty and brutality of the situation there.
Thanks for promoting SCARED! I hope more people will catch a vision for ministry in Swaziland.
I found Tom on Facebook. He’s excited to hear all the team’s news and I am sure will love to chat with you guys when you are home. He has a second book coming out soon I think.
