Prior to the launch, many renowned Senior Pastors shared insightful testimonies of the work and ministry of Archbishop Charles Agyinasare.

Bishop Dag Heward-Mills said, “I have known Archbishop Charles Agyinasare as a man of miracles, signs, and wonders. He is someone I have admired, whose ministry has spanned many years and has blessed many people…”

Professor Philip Ebow Bondzi-Simpson, Vice-Chancellor of the Methodist University, who reviewed the book said it centred on the Clergyman’s journeys, struggles, doubts and frustrations in life.

Each chapter started with quotable quotes extracted from issues Archbishop Agyinasare has written on, sermons he has preached and books previously authored.

“It also talks about the significant milestones, achievements reached over the years and finally, the mission of this man”, he explained.

“It talks about the man, his knowledge and mission. We will learn about the commission of this particular prophet: the commission to hear and to preach,” he added, using 1 Samuel 10:25.

Prof. Bondzi-Simpson said the book highlights the message that there was hope for everyone regardless of the circumstances of their birth and upbringing, history and past, adventures and misadventures— proof that God loved the sinner but not the sin and extended His hand of saving grace to all, including the sinner.
