His story deserves a wide readership and will make a deep impact.' - Moss Ntlha, General Secretary, Evangelical Alliance of South Africa\nAs Africa shook off colonialism in the 1960s, a young man was gripped by a singular purpose: to play his part in God's plans for the fractured nations of Africa.\nA son of apartheid South Africa, Michael Cassidy appeared an unlikely candidate to lead a team bringing a gospel message of salvation, reconciliation and hope to a continent overturning white rule. Over five decades, and with the support of his extraordinary wife Carol, Michael and his African Enterprise team courageously built up ten national teams and a network of relationships criss-crossing Africa.\nMichael saw clearly the need for quality leadership. He fostered vital dialogue among top politicians in the tense run-up to South Africa's 1994 elections. As the country hurtled towards civil war, he helped facilitate a last-minute settlement, paving the way for the peaceful inauguration of Nelson Mandela.\nTold with inimitable charm and humour, this is a personal story of family, friendship and faith and beautifully demonstrates God's love at work in the turbulence of Africa's recent history.\n'A must read.'\nJoni Eareckson Tada\n'African Enterprise has made, under God, a real contribution in South Africa. This is the founder's inspiring story. I warmly commend it to you.'\nArchbishop Desmond Tutu\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0281081018\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0281081018.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Cassidy, Michael\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43857897324605,"sku":"BVV.0281081018.VG","price":11.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/0281081018-0.jpg?v=1792533417","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/footprints-in-the-african-sand-my-life-and-times","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
