Lionel Etwaru became very involved in ministry with Apostle Harry Das and had the opportunity to see the power of the gospel transforming the lives of men and women. In this biography, we see how many lives have been changed and kept by the power of God. Many, in turn, became a part of the mission to share the Gospel in unreached villages, where churches have been planted. This dynamic presentation of the Gospel was expanded when Apostle Philip Mohabir came together with Apostle Harry Das in 1964 and founded the Full Gospel Fellowship. As the team expanded, so the number of churches increased. Today, there are more than 120 churches and scores of missionaries who have been trained in the Bible Training Center. This move did not only affect Guyana but at least thirty other nations around the world. Lionel now lives with his wife, Margaret, in Long Island, New York and pastors a church in Queens. He continues to travel to many other countries for ministry.
From Around the Globe features twenty-six essays from international scholars across various disciplines who explore a broad range of contemporary and cutting-edge connections between the Bible and global literature. The scholars' fields of study range from classical western literature to multicultural tracts, including a broad variety of literary genres.

Some non-western writers might even be unaware of the allusions they generate, and western writers, while delving into allegorical shadows, may unwittingly layer in biblical references to their works. This collection engages in a reassessment of authors' biblical references, intentional or unintentional.

The poems of The Revelation of Love encompass a wide range of subjects: romance, philosophy, religion, metaphysics, and running like a bright thread through the weave of this collection ""love."" The diversity of this collection offers universal appeal, and poetry lovers will be inspired by the tapestry of complex imagery and symbolism. This is no slim, delicate volume of poems, deftly constructed at 384 pages. The Revelation of Love takes the reader on an odyssey of love, a spiritual journey like a Dante traveling with his muse into a new Inferno in search of paradise and divine bliss -- from the classical Homeric tradition into the contemporary genres of poetry. Very few collections of poetry can reach such diverse audience with such power and panache.
