In this episode Matt hears from Ola, a Nigerian-Brit who grew up in the UK. Expelled from school, he got caught up in the drug scene in London, before coming to Christ as a young man. He then became a rap artist, before sensing the Lord calling him to the nations.

Ola shares honestly about the difficulties of moving to the country of his parents and grandparents to do church planting, before spending many years in the Middle East. Malaria, threats of curses, debates with Imams all were challenges he had to face.

He also has a powerful word for the diaspora black churches in the West.

(Apologies for the sound quality in this episode. We've had to alter the voice somewhat to protect the identity of 'Ola' and there were some other technical issues during this interview!)
