Why T-Net?

On this first episode, I’d like to answer a simple question. Why T-Net? And instead of me answering, I want you to hear from indigenous voices where T-Net has had the most reach - the continent of Africa. Listen as our four African regional directors answer this question as well as briefly share their testimonies.  Also, great news about achieving accreditation through the Asian Theological Association (ATA) for Teleo University.  Special thanks to regional directors Justifier, Johnson, Timothy, and Mulu.
