A magic story of Christian stewardship.-Dr. Walter B. ShurdenMinister at Large, Mercer UniversityIn Hoping Liberia, Michael Helms weaves together multiple stories-the story of his friendship with Olu Menjay, the director of Ricks Institute in Virginia, Liberia; the story of their partnership in ministry; and the story of the nation of Liberia. . . . Helms immerses readers into a period of political turmoil and violence, a devastating civil war, and the immeasurable suffering experienced by the Liberian people. In the aftermath of these harsh realities, Liberian Christians held on to hope, and Hoping Liberia is ultimately an inspirational and uplifting story of faith being lived out and the body of Christ coming together and joining hands to do God's work.-Dr. Pamela R. DursoExecutive Director Baptist Women in Ministry, Atlanta, GeorgiaWhile this book reads like a novel, it is a well-researched history of Liberia. . . . In addition to its prophetic voice, Hoping Liberia is insightful, purposeful, and missional and will move the reader into missio Dei.-Dr. Emmanuel McCallFounding Pastor of The Fellowship GroupEast Point, GeorgiaEvery good story needs a good storyteller. The story of Olu Menjay and Ricks Institute is a very good story. Michael Helms is a very good storyteller. Now the story will be shared far and wide. Thanks be to God for the story and its teller.-Dr. Richard F. WilsonColumbus Roberts Professor of Theology and Chair, Roberts Department of Christianity, Mercer University
