The Role of the Church in Economic Development






Last week I organized a seminar with World Vision staff on the role of the church and economic development for twenty-eight church leaders from four West African countries. The participants came from fourteen different denominations and each brought his or her unique perspective to the topics and discussions. It was encouraging to see the leaders’ unity and concern for the development of their communities. Please be in prayer for future seminars we are planning in other regions.
