PINEVILLE, La. (LCU News) – Louisiana Christian University Professor of Business Arthur Mazhambe served as the guest speaker at the All Africa Baptist Men’s Fellowship in Zimbabwe in October.
The theme of the conference “Freed to Proclaim” was drawn from Psalm 40:8-10.
“We witnessed a gathering that was not only spiritually enriching but also impeccably orchestrated,” said the Rev. Herbert Chingono, local arrangements committee chairman for the AABMF: Southern Region. “This would not have been possible without the tireless efforts, countless hours of preparation, and the Spirit-led contribution from [Arthur Mazhambe].”
Mazhambe spoke on godly men and women and their role in the church.
“The Women’s Missionary Union in the Baptist churches in Africa has always been way ahead of men in spreading the gospel,” Mazhambe said. “It is exciting to see men growing in number and zeal for Christ in Africa.”
LCU’s W. Ray Endowment funds allowed for Mazhambe’s participation in the conference.
“Dr. Mazhambe’s participation in an international awakening in Africa adds so much to his experience and what he can share in the classroom,” said Vice President of Academic Affairs Henry O. Robertson. “Students hear about the different and similar ways to worship and much more about how to share the Christian faith beyond all borders. He connects well with believers across the ocean in his native land and learns more from different cultures and people groups who gathered to share an abiding love of Jesus Christ. He is a business faculty member with an eye on connections that go deeper than transactional knowledge. With a heart for missions and sharing the gospel, Dr. Mazhambe is the perfect speaker, a prime example for our students, and one who gets truly what integrating faith and learning means. LCU is very fortunate to be able to share him with our students.”
