Christianity in Africa - Paul Flynn interviews Reformed Baptist preacher Conrad Mbewe
Here is an excerpt from this interview:
Paul Flynn: "How did you know the Lord was calling you to the ministry? Was it at a young age, or was it later in life?"
Conrad Mbewe: "I was definitely quite young. I must have been roughly 18, just entering my University studies. I was not even converted one year when I started getting a strong urge to preach. It disturbed me because I thought I was just admiring my pastor...But because this strong urge in me was not going away, and I was finding a lot of fulfilment in evangelizing even on campus itself, I decided to seek counsel from an older Christian...He advised me to continue my studies, finish them, continue waiting on the Lord, and if he was calling me he would make my path straight."
