“He is a man that God has obviously raised up for this time, I think one of the significant things that is happening in our day is a real shift in spiritual leadership to the 3rd World Nations and Luis really represents what is the finest and best of Evangelism leadership that is developing around the world.”
Interviewer: “How is he used overseas, who is he internationally?”
Wiremu Paratene: “I think in many ways he’s inherited a mantel very similar to Billy Graham.”
