Missionary to America - Christian Mungai - People Are the Wealth

“Your (American) churches are dying, ours are growing, but you’re still sending us missionaries. Shouldn’t we be sending missionaries to you?” Nairobi, Kenya Bishop Oscar Muriu proclaimed at Urbana 20 years ago. Today, Pastor Christian Mungai embodies that vision as the Global Movement Pastor at Mariners Church. He joins Dan Ehrman on The Church Around the World to share his story and the African vision of people-centered, missional Christian life from his book People Are the Wealth.

Pastor Mungai has served as a Kenyan missionary to the United States since 2007. At Mariners Church in Irvine, California, he mobilizes the global church to join God’s work worldwide. Previously, he was a member of Milele, an Afro-fusion band that grew from celebrating God through music into a platform for humanitarian and Kingdom work. Christian studied social legislation at BAMU University in India and pursued a Master of Divinity at Claremont School of Theology.
