Description

This book tells, first hand, the powerful story of Dr. David Edward Owuor, a renowned faith healer, preacher and prophet; vividly drawing out the emergence, historical and theological articulations of Repentance and Holiness Kings Outreach Church. The book demonstrates the striking relevance for today of the relationship between science and religion given the fact that Dr. David Edward Owuor is a pure scientist yet he is one of the greatest evangelists of the twenty first century. This book expertly covers the subject of prophecy and faith healing in churches today as exemplified in Repentance and Holiness Kings Outreach Church.

This is a pioneering work on perhaps one of the most popular, influential and controversial Christian movements in the history of the Christian church in Kenya. The study is detailed, rich and critical while providing a rigorous academic analysis of this movement. Like good scholars, the authors have attempted to make us understand the theological underpinnings of this church without taking sides [Dr. Joseph Basil Okong’o; Moi University, Eldoret, Kenya]
