Motsi Misiko

Rev Dr Ray Motsi is the President of the Theological College of Zimbabwe and has been a Baptist pastor for over 20 years. He has a BA in Practical Theology, an MA in Old Testament and Hebrew, and a PhD in Peacebuilding, Conflict Resolution and Trauma Healing. He founded Grace to Heal, a faith-based organization focusing on community peace-making and conflict resolution. He has been through marital difficulties and seen biblical principles transform his marriage, as well as couples he has counselled. Motsi brings Old Testament, cultural and conflict resolution perspectives to this book. As the President of the Theological College of Zimbabwe, Motsi has broad networks across the continent through the Association of Evangelicals in Africa. He also has local networks in Zimbabwe through the school’s alumni and through his pastoring. These networks are all keen to address ministry challenges from a practical contextual perspective. Rev Dr Ron Misiko has a growing reputation in Kenya as someone who is willing to talk about divorce and has solutions to address it. When he has shared his heart for divorce, the response has always been that this is a highly relevant topic that ministers are struggling to address. His passion for divorcées grew out of his 12 years pastoring Karura Community Chapel, a thriving church in Nairobi and a sister church to Nairobi Chapel. For his DMin, he did multi-disciplinary research on a biblical and pastoral response to divorce for the church in Kenya. Misiko is now addressing divorce in private practice as an Advocate of the High Court of Kenya. He is also beginning a divorce ministry. From his pastoral experience, Misiko has connections to pastors throughout Nairobi and Kenya. As a DMin graduate of Africa International University, Misiko’s former classmates have offered him connections to speak in their ministries across the continent. He has also recently featured in radio talk shows and has even been sought out by non-Christians for help. After receiving an international certification in mediation, the colleagues he met of other religions have begun referring divorce cases to him. Show Less
