William Ardill is a general surgeon who served as a medical missionary in Liberia from 1986-1990 during the beginning of the Liberian civil war and in Nigeria from 1992-2012. Journey On A Dusty Road is Ardill's memoir of the last 20 years of his medical missionary experiences in Nigeria. He chronicles the joys and hardships his family faced, the unraveling of the political situation largely due to religious and tribal conflict, and punctuates the narrative with interesting vignettes of patients treated at Evangel Hospital. He also shares the circumstances of the birth of the many different ministries they initiated to the street children, women with childbirth related injuries, women in crisis pregnancies, and families suffering with HIV/AIDS. He honestly discloses his personal and family struggles, the amazing deliverance of God in several life-threatening crises, and the worldwide support for their family over their twenty years serving with SIM in Nigeria. Written for those interested in medical missionary work, this very personal account is an exhaustive narrative of the spectrum of situations, good and bad, modern missionaries face. Journey On A Dusty Road is a testimony to God's grace and mercy and the support of hundreds worldwide who sustained them through their prayers, kindness, and gifts

Dusty Roads is a poetic walk in the journey that is my life. It is taken from various seasons and experiences. I believe it is God’s will that this work be published. At this time and in this season the message of God’s grace should be preached through all genres. It is my belief that my fellows, as well as those who walk outside the safety of salvation, will be bettered by the openness of this work; the testimony and honest revelation will be a witness to the lost and edification to kingdom travelers. It is my belief that this work is one of “few things,” for which Christ will reward as a faithful act, and the knowledge that I may be of service to him in the furtherance of the kingdom compels and, yes, propels me onward down this “dusty road.”

Taking the reader from Glasgow to Lagos and beyond, Red Dust Road is a heart-stopping memoir, a story of parents and siblings, friends and strangers, belonging and beliefs, biology and destiny. With an introduction by the First Minister of Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon. From the moment when, as a little girl, she realizes that her skin is a different colour from that of her beloved mum and dad, to the tracing and finding of her birth parents, her Highland mother and Nigerian father, Jackie Kay’s journey in Red Dust Road is one of unexpected twists, turns and deep emotions. In a book remarkable for its warmth and candour, she discovers that inheritance is about much more than genes: that we are shaped by songs as much as by cells, and that what triumphs, ultimately, is love. ‘Like the best memoirs, this one is written with novelistic and poetic flair. Red Dust Road is a fantastic, probing and heart-warming read’ – Independent

At Journey's End is the continuing story of The Long Dusty Road Home. This is the story of a family that is scattered through several states that struggles to come full circle. Karen backs out of her driveway without looking towards the house that has been her home for several months. Fear made her grip the steering wheel fiercely turning her knuckles white and her legs trembled as she sped away into the night on a long dark ribbon of highway as she ran for the safety that waited for her and her child in Oklahoma. She looked into her rear mirror hoping that she wouldn't see the very danger she ran from following her down that long black highway. Karen's child lay sleeping in the back seat unaware that he and his mother are on their way to a new life with a family he has never ever met.

The slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro offer a fertile land, a cool climate, and an abundance of water that over many years wars were fought in attempts to conquer and settle. The people living on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro are the Chagga. Historically, there were many alliances that led to security, but also there were betrayals that led to division into small kingdoms ruled by chiefs locally known as mangi. At the end of the wars, the slopes were divided into three major areas named Rombo, Vunjo, and Hai, each ruled by a number of mangi. The seniority of each mangi was measured by his wealth. The population increased rapidly as peace was established. The people on the slopes of the mountain live very closely, packed with water and road facilities comparable to a large metropolitan city, but only with trees and foliage, not concrete. First, Hai was highly populated, followed by Vunjo, but Rombo was sparsely populated as it was the leeward side of the mountain. Before the time of Touwa schooldays, the Nanjara village, which is in Rombo, was a prime area for land ownership such that Europeans were in pursuit to grab some of that land. It was in that state of competition that the local mangi sent vanguards like Touwas grandfather and many others to occupy the land to prevent European settlement. That was how the Nanjara village came to existence. The Chagga people have basically one culture, one language with area-based differences of accents, and Nanjara village life could reflect life for all Chagga people.

The desire to succeed and live an impactful life is embedded in every human being. We all yearn to walk the journey of life in a way that has meaning and impact. Within us lies an unquenchable thirst to answer some of life's crucial questions with regards to our reason for existence. Many of us seek, daily, to find the secret to success and satisfaction in this life. As much as we have heard teachings, sermons and even read books that try to tackle this issue, there is still that missing gap in many individuals that calls for a simple and easy to follow process on how one can live a satisfying, purpose-driven, unique and impactful life! The IPEBSAL model expounds on this process using simple principles that bring a new, integrated and practical approach in answering how one can live an extraordinary life of fulfilment with a lasting legacy. These principles are drawn from Dr Douglas Mboweni's life story, and have seen him to where he is today, by the Grace of God. They are also bringing about tremendous improvement and results in the lives of many other individuals in his circle of influence, particularly his family. These principles apply to anyone, regardless of culture, background, gender, age, stature or ethnicity. The IPEBSAL principles are indeed a set of simple keys that work together to open one big door called destiny!

Not illustrated. 1915 edition. Excerpt: ... THE DUSTY ROAD It was a bleak afternoon in January. The sun had been shining brightly all day; but its unsparing light only made Philadelphia look colder. The northwest wind whistled down from the dry Canadian ice-fields, and its breath was like the point of a knife. Travelling at a rate of thirty-five miles an hour, it rushed to the frozen Schuylkill; there it paused a moment and gathered fuller force in the tunnel of the river; then, with strength renewed after its long journey, it whirled up clouds of grime from the railroads and factories along the water's edge and drove them through every available crack of door or window-frame in the houses on the east side, till to the people inside, shivering over their fires, the very stone walls hardly seemed to afford protection. The Andersons' house stood near the Schuylkill, and only a few hundred yards from the terminus of a railroad. The wind seemed to make it the object of special attentions; the loose window-frames rattled ominously, the crazy furnace-flue refused to draw; through tiny cracks in the neglected walls the locomotive dust came filtering in, and covered everything with a coat of depressing grey. A sudden gust tore the rickety kitchen door off its hinges; and Mrs. Anderson, standing over the carpenter who was repairing it so that she could make sure he was working all the time she paid him for and not letting her in for unnecessary extravagance, calculated ruefully that now she would not be able to afford the new dress she had planned to wear to Mrs. Coxe's bridge party. It would have been a tight squeeze to manage it in any case, and now it would be hopeless. She must either go in her archaic black silk, or beg a second-hand garment from 7 someone, and trust to her own skill...
