Religion Again
"PASTOR DANIEL AJAYI-ADENIRAN is coming for your soul. It doesn't matter if you are black or white, rich or poor, speak English or Spanish or Cantonese. He is on a mission to save you from eternal damnation. He realizes you may be skeptical, put off by his exotic name—he's from Nigeria—or confused by his accent, the way he stretches his vowels and trills his R's, giving his sermons a certain chain-saw rhythm. He suspects you may have some unfortunate preconceptions about Nigerians. But he is not deterred. He believes the Holy Spirit is working through him—aided by the awesome earthly power of demographics.
"Africa is the world's fastest-growing continent, and Ajayi-Adeniran belongs to one of its most vigorously expansionary religious movements, a homegrown Pentecostal denomination that is crusading to become a global faith." More at http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/12/ma...1&ref=magazine |
