Dr. Daniel Fountain, together with his wife, Miriam, has been one of the most respected and influential figures in medical missions during the past half-century—up until his recent death in 2013. Over several decades of medical work in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Dr. Fountain developed and modeled a wholistic approach to medical care, an approach which has been adopted not only by Christian mission organizations worldwide but also by the World Health Organization. This book is a stirring first-hand account of Dr. Fountain’s contributions in the Congo, which have led to a virtual revolution in medical missions around the world. Promoting health is integral to promoting the gospel of Christ; this book explains why and shows how to do it.\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ccite\u003eThomas Hale Jr., MD\u003c\/cite\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e [\/ENDORSEMENT4] [TOC]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eForeword\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e1.

It really should, on the one hand, help us celebrate those who in many ways are unknown heroes and heroines in the field of missions. Yet it should also challenge and inspire us, particularly within the African-American church family, to become far more engaged in connecting with our global family, and moving well beyond our comfort zone of daily existence. Brian Johnson, one of my mentors in the ministry of missions, is an incredible “doer of the word” when it comes to exhorting people to live and share their faith in a most compelling way to advance the Kingdom of God. If you have a desire to influence the world for Christ, \u003cem\u003eProfiles of African-American Missionaries\u003c\/em\u003e will let you examine how others were pacesetters in that regard.
