A Visitor From Kenya to St Mary's Men's Group

Today at our St Mary's Men's Group we talked about the phrases in the King James Bible that have become common idiom up to our own day. We were especially glad to have a pastor visiting from Kenya who is here for a short visit. Africa he said has two challenges: one posed by Islam and the other by the values of the West. He further said that they who were African believers were continually praying for America who they regarded as the New Jerusalem that has unfortunately lost her way---but had great hope for her in America's President Trump who they saw as Nehemiah who was also called upon to build a wall---his was about old Jerusalem; and this wall was not regarded as immoral or one that wouldn't work. Refreshing to have the old world African perspective---quite different than the diet we daily get from CNN and MSNBC and The Huffington Post. From now on I will keep my eyes out for the Kenyan Daily.
