Ministry Focus
For 20 years, Africa has been the continent with the fastest growth of Christians. Church leaders in Africa face many challenges, including the threat of false teachings that circulate widely. It is therefore important that these leaders deepen their biblical knowledge to fight doctrinal hazards and thereby protect the mission of the Church to reach the unreached. That is why Dr. Jonathan and Anne have been trained to be able to respond to this urgent need. Jonathan has been teaching in Lomé, Togo since 2009 at WAAST (waast.org), to pastors, teachers, Bible school leaders and presidents of national movements from more than 20 African countries. Jonathan and Anne, drawn from their experience at EMCI TV, will also continue to broadcast Bible teachings for social media and TV. Be involved in this great strategic mission by committing yourself to support the Bersots in prayers. Any financial support will also contribute to the development of the French-speaking Church in Africa.
