What was supposed to be a ten-day mission trip, ended up being a 21-day life-changing experience. Zach's first time traveling to preach the Gospel was during a time when Uganda, Africa just experienced back-to-back COVID lockdowns.
With a background in stand-up comedy, Zach shares his experience loving the one in front of him in a way that's raw, real, and humorous which will impact readers for years to come.
God's plan for not only his journey, but the ministry of The Suubi Project, and the people of Uganda is revealed in a way that will bring hearts closer to Christ. Humanity's need for a Savior is on full display in 21 Days in Africa.
Zachariah Rippey is a husband and father of three boys and a baby girl.

By the favor of God, Zach’s "I Like Birds Podcast" has reached over 30 million people since launching in 2020. His faith journey has impacted lives in his inner and outer circles of influence, leading his closest friends to receive Christ. Zach inspires believers around the world to “Do it for the One.”

Pastor Troy Brewer
“I believe 21 Days in Africa is such an important book. This isn’t just a travel log or a collection of stories from a trip overseas. This is a glimpse into a man who said yes to Jesus, no matter the cost. This is the journey of someone who could have chosen the easy road, someone who could have stayed in his comfortable place, but instead, he ran headfirst into the unknown because he trusted the One who called him.”
