In Leamo’s remote village, the smartest children didn’t go to school. They were put in charge of tending cattle, and he had learned the skill well. At 23, he was initiated as a Moran warrior, trained to protect his village at all costs. Stolen cattle meant revenge raids against his tribe’s mortal enemies—the Pokot. One day, Leamo was invited to a literacy class and learned things he’d never heard before. When the teacher spoke about God and said, “When in trouble, God will help you,” he didn’t believe it. That year, as often happens in Kenya, a severe drought forced him to search for grazing land near the Pokot border. Unbeknownst to him, assassins lurked in the shadows. Suddenly, a shot rang out and Leamo felt the bullet graze his scalp. Terrified, he fell to the ground knowing he would surely die. He remembered his teacher’s words and prayed for the first time to a God he’d never met: “God, save my life!” Watch this video for the stunning conclusion to this story. Set against the backdrop of Africa’s scenic savanna and spectacular sunsets, this brand-new video was just nominated for a People’s Telly Award. It’s the story of how God’s love reaches even the farthest corners of our planet to transform lives—and I especially love it when He uses Adventist World Radio to do it! Sync ID
