There are
more than 20 million Protestant and Evangelical Christians in Africa
and on the Caribbean and South Pacific Islands. The economic situation
in these places is dramatic. Thirteen of the twenty-five French-speaking
countries in Africa have an average annual per capita income of less
than $500.*
The spiritual situation
is no less dramatic. "Millions have been evangelized and responded,
but non-Christian customs and worldviews have invaded the Church. Syncretism
is a major problem in many areas. Thorough-going repentance and renunciation
of sin and the works of darkness are often lacking and many Christians
are not free from the fear of witchcraft and evil spirits."*
A deeper understanding
and practice of essential Christian doctrines is crucial for the African
church at this point in history. Depth is achieved through a mature
understanding and implementation of that knowledge within the church.
The church suffers when needed resources, both spiritual and material,
are withheld.
Access
to resources is one of the critical bottlenecks. The poverty of
the Church and lack of understanding among potential donors hampers the
development of Bible study resources. Western churches need to give as
freely for providing spiritual food to the starving Christians as they
have done to provide for Africa’s famines.*
FEEL will efficiently bring desperately needed libraries to African pastors and key laymen who care for the spiritual needs of the many Christians there.

The challenge of North Africa...
What good is an "electronic library" in Africa and other needy nations?
The sales price of the FEEL library will be adapted to the local economies...
