Tough Talk Christian Radio with Host Tony Gambone with Special Guest Erica Mbasan and Walter Manning:

Erica Mbasan - a missionary in Northern Uganda, and the author of “For the Joy Set Before Us: Insights into the Missionary Journey.” My book was published in late 2014 (under my maiden name Erica Fye). I have been a missionary for 8 1/2 years, and in 2011 I started an NGO and a project called “Africa for God.” Our 501c3 in the US is called Africa4God, Inc. I work with orphans, widows, and people in villages. My primary ministry is discipleship, raising up the local believers to be strong members of their communities and churches. I teach Bible studies, facilitate short term teams, do literacy training, and help with a local orphanage.
