  • 2.7 Ethiopia – The African Bonhoeffer, Gudina Tumsa
    Oct 9 2023
    As Ethiopia entered the 20th Century, there was trouble and hope. After a brutal invasion of the Italians just before World War 2, and after Italy's defeat in the war, Ethiopia recovered and modernized. But in the late 1970s, a political stagnation led to Communist Revolution. It was then that one of Ethiopia's great theologians took a stand. Gudina Tumsa, after a short but brilliant career as a church leader, would give his life as a witness of Jesus Christ. Learn how his life and death shaped the Ethiopian Lutheran Church, and gives inspiration to Christians everywhere.

  • 2.6 Ethiopia – Lutheranism, Onesimus Nesib
    Sep 27 2023
    Today the Lutheran Church in Ethiopia is the largest Lutheran Church body in the World. That is thanks to the service of Onesimus Nesib, and many other faithful missionaries like him. Onesimus was born in 1856 in a remote part of Ethiopia. At 4 years old he was captured and enslaved. He was then bought, sold, escaped and recaptured multiple times. After being freed by a Swedish missionary, Onesimus would become a Christian at 16 years old. For the rest of his life he would work to return to his home region of Ethiopia to bring the Gospel to his homeland.

  • 2.5 Ethiopia – The Fight for Identity, Walatta Petros
    Jun 7 2021
    After Ethiopia survived near destruction at the hands of Gragn, a different battle began. Instead of a military battle, it was a battle of ideas for Ethiopia's identity. Catholic missionaries began to arrive in Ethiopia in the late 1500s. And while some, like a man Petro Paez, legitimately hoped to find unity between Roman Catholics and Ethiopian Orthodox, others simply wanted Ethiopia become European. Walatta Petros was a brave and sometimes impetuous Ethiopian nun who resisted these attempts and helped preserve Ethiopia's heritage.
