Soul Brothers

Two Men. Two Worlds. One Purpose.

De: Tripp Johnston

Narrado por: Joe Scalora

A Harvard-trained investment banking executive and an Ethiopian aid worker caught up together in a God-sized story.

Worlds apart, yet brothers in heart. Tripp chased the American dream. Berhanu was chased for his life.

Tripp Johnston, a successful American business executive with a Harvard MBA, seemed to have it all, yet he hungered for more. He was rich, yet poor in so many ways. Poverty, famine, political repression, and persecution framed Berhanu’s world in Ethiopia. Although poor by most measures, Berhanu was rich in relationships with Christian friends and God.

In a seemingly crazy move, Tripp gave up a lucrative career and moved his family of five to Ethiopia, following God’s leading. This journey of faith radically redefined everything Tripp thought he knew about purpose, significance, and success.

Together, Tripp and Berhanu helped launch Sports Friends, a ministry of SIM that is touching the lives of hundreds of thousands of young people in Ethiopia and around the world.
