The exciting story

Sword and Scalpel Sword & Scalpel is the exciting story of how God has used Dr. Robert L. Foster to spread the Gospel and bring healing across southern Africa. Through the dangers of civil war and the difficulties of missionary life, he served four decades as a surgeon in Zambia and Angola, founding four mission hospitals.  "When you read Sword & Scalpel, I believe you will see why Dr. Bob Foster is not only a great surgeon, but a great preacher as well. God has used this missionary statesman in a mighty way to open up new frontiers for the Gospel in some of the roughest areas of Africa." --Franklin Graham
