Uganda has an amazing missionary heritage that reflects her mighty Nile River - she has brought life wherever she goes. Few other nations have such a rich history of working in God's mission by joining in the flow of God's supernatural River of Life. When the gospel first arrived in Uganda in 1875 (no, not is 1877!) it was received with great joy. It was also spread by Ugandan missionaries travelling by foot across mountains and by canoe across lakes. In this book, we will explore the lives and legacies of Ugandans who were pioneers in bringing the Good News to places and people who had never heard it. We will discover the stories of Ugandan missionaries who became ambassadors of the gospel all across East Africa, into the rest of the continent, and in fact into the farthest parts of the world.

In life, every big achievement has a small beginning. The big tree you see today was once a seed. The big business that thrives today was once an idea. The chicken that walks today was once an egg. Hidden in an egg is a chicken that when properly nurtured, can walk with time. No matter what their background is, everyone can become something when properly nurtured.With time, an egg walks presents how Job's mother raises Job from a little boy in an insignificant setting in Gulu, Uganda, to a global icon, positively transforming the world. Employing African wisdom, knowledge and traditions, Job's mother uses various life circumstances to teach Job life lessons that change his wrong, preconceived perceptions of life. With the correct application of the lessons, Job rises from local to global, zero to hero, and grass to grace, inspiring humanity in different parts of the world. The philosophical book presents the life lessons a typical African mother teaches her child to prepare them to face life situations and make it even when all odds are against them. In the book, Job challenges us to properly nurture all eggs to walk with time and fully tap their potential. "The book is a script of amelioration in Job's life which will touch everyone who reads it. It is an accumulation of how Job has been able to sail through the various chapters of his life to where he is now, as a man on a global inspiration mission indeed transforming the global anatomy." -H.E. Isaac Kwabena Boadu, Ghana. President, African Voices International "Job was once an egg. The egg hatched into a chick. The chick was spotted to be a cockerel the very day it hatched. Today, Job is that cock that crows and wakes us up from slumber." -Mwaka Emmanuel Lutukumoi, New York, USA. Peace and Conflict Expert; Author of The Innocent Criminals, The Luo Secrets and My Alur Roots

I have experienced brokenness in family due to offences committed before I was ever born. I have also seen marriages that could have been saved die too soon because of the pain held onto for too long. Hurt people indeed hurt people.I have also experienced the joy and restoration that come with being forgiven; by God, by my family and by my community. I would not have stayed hopeful that someday my businesses would thrive, or family be fully reunited or even trust in a secure eternal destiny if it were not for forgiveness.I believe that we can only thrive where we have healthy communities and these cannot be built in an environment of disunity and mistrust. Just as forgiveness is the precursor to salvation, I believe it is the first step towards the wholesome redemption of meaningful relationships in any thriving community.
