'The Billy Graham of Africa'
“Africans across the continent…are sharing their personal stories of how they met Jesus Christ at a Reinhard Bonnke crusade 10-15 years ago and they’re still believers. I think that’s the legacy, that’s the lasting impact of Bonnke’s obedience to the gospel of Jesus Christ," said Senior International Correspondent George Thomas on today's CBN News Daily Rundown.
Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke passed away over the weekend at the age of 79. For six decades, the German-born preacher crisscrossed the African continent preaching the love of Jesus Christ.
Listen in to today's episode as Thomas remembers attending one of Bonnke's crusades back in 1985, interviewing him in 2010 and looks back at a calling that changed a nation.
