The Herero practice traditional ancestor worship. To follow Jesus, they must leave their familiar spiritual community and enter a new one—a difficult shift for many. Herero seekers often question whether the church can truly meet their needs, but some are coming to faith through small groups, where honest discussions help them navigate cultural challenges to following Jesus. These groups offer a safe space to grow, ask questions, and embrace a new identity.
“Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor.” (James 4:10 NLT)
