God is truly at work on the continent of Africa. Organizations like Pew and Barna Research will tell us that this one of the world's regions where Christianity is spreading and growing in the greatest numbers, not only among adults but also children and young people.

It's happening through Christians like Salome, who founded a school near Nairobi, Kenya, to teach at-risk children, often part of single-parent households and influenced by violence and rebellious peers, and to point them to the hope of the Gospel. And through young people like Anne, who at one time doubted God's existence, but now is a maturing believer helping other teens to follow Jesus Christ.
