To be successful in communicating the Gospel to peoples of a totally different worldview to your own is no simple matter. Kev Hovey has the ability and depth of experience to so communicate, as well as to help others to understand the skills and sensitivities needed. He knows and understands the stark realities of animistic practices as well as the importance of worldview. He is likewise experienced in the realities of the power of the Holy Spirit over all the powers of evil spirits and the kingdom of darkness.
