The New Millennium Missionary: Passionately Pursuing the Call of God is a story of adventure in prayer and faith demonstrated in the market place where people live and interact with God on a daily basis. It captures the workings of God in uncanny ways that provoke a desire to seek God on a personal level. The story portrays the power of God to work out his plan in any institution outside the church as long as he has willing partners. The New Millennium Missionary is an ample demonstration that God desires to use anyone who is available in and outside the four walls of the church.

A call to intercession coincides with the new millennium with specific mandates to pray for people like Andrae` Crouch, going into companies to decree the word of God. In the process of receiving the mandate to pray and intercede, opposition manifests with cruel intensity from beginning to end but victory is realized in that the author lives to tell the story. It is also a book of history as it looks at the Zimbabwean tribal history and its impact on the worship of God. The challenge of traditional institutions and their impact on the well being of an individual in the quest to worship one God when the environment throws many facets of of worship bringing a clash over the choices. The New Millennium Missionary is also a book that blends views of continental Africa and Diaspora Africa through individual experiences of fear, ignorance of how emancipated African slaves and colonized Africans can embrace without reviving the pains of history. It is clear in the book that an individual can make a difference through determination and submission to God through prayer. Prayer can take many years but there will be an answer one day, hence the character of a person is developed in the furnace of pain and uncertainty that are sharpened to eventually anchor on faith as the realization is made that the principles of God's dealings with man never change from generation to generation.
