The autobiography of Dr Michael Cassidy, one of the most influential people in the development of modern South Africa and a key figure in the growth of the Christian church in Southern Africa over the last 50 years.
See above.
The book shows that redemption can be personal as well as social
and that there can be godly resistance to evil which does not fall
into the trap of emulating the ways of the oppressors. Michael has
been able, in his own life, to overcome the divisions of race,
denominations and theological emphasis with simplicity and
integrity. I have learnt much from his example. I know that others
will too. -- Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali
This is truly a "must read" book! Full of detailed, moving accounts
of personal stories - including miracles and gripping accounts of
faith in action, courage in situations of high tension and danger,
and reconciliation. This biography of a man whose faith led him to
make a unique contribution to the promotion of peace and equality
in South Africa is profoundly inspirational - and a glorious
Christian witness for the rest of Africa and, indeed, of the world.
-- Baroness Caroline Cox

preach the Word of God and he has seen lives transformed at all

When it comes to all things African, Michael Cassidy is a Christian
statesman who walks his talk. He has invested decades of prayer,
preaching, and tireless advocacy on behalf of Christ's kingdom on
the most ancient of continents. Footprints in the African Sand is
Michael's remarkable and highly personal story of how Africa
touched his heart... and he, in turn, reached deep into the heart
of Africa. If you enjoy captivating stories about missionary zeal,
this is a must-read. -- Joni Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends

Michael Cassidy has lived a life of Christian nobility. Numberless
people are in the embrace of Christ's love because of his faithful
efforts. -- Gordon MacDonald, Chancellor, Denver Seminary
I've learned that prayer involves listening as much as talking,
aligning us with what God wants done in the world more than what we
want God to do for us. Michael Cassidy's life models that
principle. -- Philip Yancey, author and journalist
