Kenyan witch hunter
Sounds like he didn't have to hunt for the witch. She was well known. Sounds like he is a witchcraft fighter. I can't see anything unbiblical about what he's doing. It seems very realistic to expect to see ways how God has worked to accomplish growth in His saints, specially if it involved prayer. God has told us that it is the poor of this world that He has made rich in faith. I'll bet this Kenyan is poor and rich in faith.
