Dr Robert Peprah-Gyamfi, grew up in Mpintimpi, a small village in Ghana. He faced many difficulties and challenges, but succeeded in becoming a medical doctor in Düsseldorf, a city about three hundred kilometres to the south-west of Hannover. Having failed to achieve his aim to become a medical doctor by attending a university in Ghana or by virtue of a scholarship to the USSR, he raised funds by working on a building site in Nigeria to pay for a daring one-way flight to East Berlin to become an asylum seeker in West Berlin—a route by which he realised his dreams and became a medical doctor in Germany.

As a young Ghanaian schoolboy he had to face a catalogue of difficulties and challenges, surviving illnesses and horrendous treatments by traditional witch-doctors, and attending school in spite of having to traverse remote bush paths. The story of how he achieved this goal is an inspiring testimony of how God called him to be a doctor and led him to work in Europe.

His life testimony is an uplifting and encouraging story which he has shown in three of his best selling books about how faith in God and a firm goal together with perseverance will lead to success. When he was still a struggling student in Ghana, Robert Peprah-Gyamfi received a powerful visual manifestation of his goal—a vision of himself and a friend meeting in a street in Europe—and it is this visual goal that spurred him on in overcoming countless hurdles, first as a construction worker in Nigeria, then as an asylum seeker in Berlin, and later as a medical student in Germany threatened with deportation but was able to stand all the storm.

At the beginning of 2006 he moved from Germany to the UK to further pursue his mission of writing and speaking in defense of the Christian Faith. He is the founder of “Thank You Jesus Ministry”, an Internet, Radio and TV Ministry.
