The spread of Christianity is faster in Africa than on any other continent. In African societies, the elephant symbolizes power, strength, faithfulness, and intellect. Deeps Where the Elephant May Swim draws on this image to bring an African flavor to the study of important Bible verses. Contemporary African context, scenes, and stories bring color to the text.
Many people today have ignored or rejected the Bible as outdated and irrelevant to their lives. They find it incompatible with the modern world. This book challenges believers and nonbelievers to delve a little deeper to gain a fuller grasp of well-known and important Scriptures before making decisions that will profoundly affect the way they live their lives.

-A reference for those still seeking to better understand their place in this world.
Readers of this book--both Christian and non-Christian--will come away with a clearer understanding of their position regarding some of the most well-known verses in the bestselling book of all time.
