I have been thinking about Christianity in Africa lately. Can anyone point me to some perhaps "famous" Christians that are African NATIVE? I know many that have been missionaries in Africa. But very rarely do you hear of Africans that have done great things for God. I do know of Mbewe. I am mostly looking for women too, however, any is helpful.
Thanks for any input! Any websites would be helpful too.
I would try a search of sermonaudio.com. If that doesn't lead you to any good ones then i would try Heartcry Missionary Society. They MAY have some fieldworkers over there in Africa might know of some native ones. Even if they don't, they might know some names for you.
There are many encouraging signs in Africa but also very sad things due to the North American Gospel that has come to them:
The Prosperity Gospel (documentary)

But there is a great remnant of churches and believers in Africa that has withstood all the American false teachings that have come to them.
Thank you sister! Heartcry may be a good one.
In the search I have found some good ones from China!
Dora Yu and Shi Miyu both during the Boxer Rebellion times.
Thank you Greg. Very much appreciated.

This is what I am looking for! Thanks
Hey, there were maybe some famous African American Christians here in America. It is suggested that George Washington Carver (born in your homestate of Missouri) may have been a Christian. I don't know if that is true or not. I only read that he prayed, believed in God and was also taken in by Christians at one point, after being orphaned. He came out of slavery, him and his mother having been kidnapped by the KKK once. Not sure what he did for the Lord.
Thanks Cyan. I am not sure. Perhaps I will look him up. I was more or less focusing on Africa for now. That may be for another time! :P
There was an african american that wrote some hymns that I believe was also a freed slave. Quite interesting. I forget her name though.
Are you only looking for African missionaries in times past or modern ones?
Star, i found a link at Heartcry Missionary Society for current native African missionaries. Here it is:

Along the right hand side you will find a list of names and some have given their testimonies.

GOD is using this his servant to preach the Truth in Africa and around the world.

Keith Daniels was born in South Africa if i'm correct, that would make him native right?
Thank you brothers and sisters. I will be looking over some of these links!
Blaine, modern or the past. It doesn't matter. Nor do they necessarily need to be missionaries. Africa is interesting to say the least. I went to Ghana several years ago. I am still thankful for the experience. Love the African people!
Lu 18:8 TLB But when the Son of Man returns, how many will he find on the earth who have faith?
Star I know of a brother from Ghana who is here in the states . He is a converted Muslim. Also moves in signs and wonders. I will post his link in this thread. Blaone

very interesting! Thank you both!
I will be going to Uganda in a little less then a month. I will be preaching at a men's conference there on the "False Gospel".
Please keep me in prayer. I will post something later on this. Blessings!
Brother will keep you in prayer. For sure the African church needs to wake up to the real gospel. No problem for the Eritrean believers. They are in shipping containers for the real gospel. Sorry every time I see a shipping container I think of the Eritrean Christians. May God use you in a mighty mighty way in Uganda. Blaine
