MEMOIR
From Gondar to the World
A Memoir of Resilience, Purpose, and Global Healing
From the ancient hills of Gondar to refugee camps and health programmes across the world, From Gondar to the World is Prof. Nebiyu Lera Alaro’s memoir of resilience, purpose and global healing.
It is the story of a boy who was misunderstood and labelled, who made a promise to rise, to heal and to serve, and of the love of a father, the faith and the community that carried that promise across continents. Written for anyone who has faced prejudice, inner struggle or the question “Why me?”, it is an invitation to turn suffering into service.

A JOURNEY THROUGH ETHIOPIA
Ethiopia Rising
A Journey Through Progress and Promise
Ethiopia Rising is Prof. Nebiyu Lera Alaro’s story-led tour of a nation on the move: its landscapes and history, its cultures and creativity, its economic change and the young people shaping what comes next.
Blending personal anecdotes with wider social commentary, the book follows the people who embody Ethiopia’s resilience and asks what progress means when tradition and modern life meet. It is written as an invitation to explore the country with curiosity and affection, and to find in its story a mirror for the challenges and victories we all face.

CHRISTIAN TEACHING · IN AMHARIC
The Revealed Truth
የተገለጠው እውነት · A study of who God is and how He makes Himself known
Written in Amharic, The Revealed Truth takes up a question raised in its introduction: what message does this generation need? Across four parts it looks at how God has revealed himself — in nature, conscience and history, and fully in Christ and the Bible — what it means to know God, who God is and what he is like, and why human beings are made in his image.
It is a book for church readers, students of theology and anyone who wants a clear, Bible-centred account of God and of ourselves.

Exercises run through the chapters, and the closing sections cover preparing a sermon, knowing your audience and delivering it well.
