Andrew Storm took a trip to Uganda Africa and I followed the trip with great interest, especially his report of what he saw transpire in Evangelical Christianity in Uganda.
Andrew Storm gives a clear picture of Pastors who are hungry for The Lord’s Word and Truth while at the same time shows the effects of the Prosperity Gospel in Africa and need for a renewal and return to New Testament Bible Truth.
Unlike Lee Grady’s Report (Charisma Magazine) that seemed to ignore the spiritual plight of the Ugandan Evangelical Church, Andrew Storm speaks the truth concerning the ‘state of affairs’ in Uganda’s Evangelical Church…
ADVENTURES in UGANDA

I just got back yesterday from a wonderful trip to Uganda. Very sorry that there was no List last week while I was away, my friends. actually set it up to publish several articles, but it did not work for some reason. My apologies.
Uganda was excellent. We were there with Mission For Vision - an awesome team from the UK - and Alex Tinson and myself were to be responsible for the Pastors and Leaders conferences. We were able to preach 5 sessions a day, which was great because we simply soaked them in the word - quite a radical word - and really saw great results. There were about 500 pastors and leaders in all. The themes were "The true and false gospels of today," 'What is a real disciple?', "What is true Christianity?" and the like. We could see it was producing genuine change. Glory to God! Thankyou so muchfor your prayers.
The prosperity gospel is making huge inroads right across Africa and the developing world - and so it is vital that we teach these thingsto the leaders. It really is distressing to see what is happening. That is why we were so grateful to be able to address the leaders like this. But I am often saddened that what we are able to do almost seems like a "drop in the ocean" compared to what the devil is doing world-wide. But then, I encourage myself, should we not consider David's 5 stones and also the little lad with the 5 small loaves and fishes?Surely God can multiply even our tiny offerings to defeat the giant Goliaths. But the church sure does seem overrun with deception on an unimaginable scale. And it is the poor and simple sheep that are often being targeted. I am hoping to publish an article soon on this entitled "The Worldwide Emergency" or something similar - about the disastrous distortions of the gospel that are taking hold round the world. Particularly a gospel of prosperity and selfishness. What untold damage is being done.
But onward we must run - into the breach, my friends! And Uganda was certainly an encouragement to go on with the fight.
Thanks so much once again for your prayers.
God bless you all!
Andrew Strom.
