Canon Andrew White is a British priest in Baghdad, Iraq. He loves Iraq, his parishioners, and his Lord (not in that order), and calls himself a "wacky charismatic evangelical believing Anglican." He was given the 2014 William Wilberforce Award a couple of weeks ago.
He's nothing like what you might expect. He has MS, his father was Indian and Baptist, his mother English and Pentecostal, and he became Anglican.
Eric Metaxas interviews him here, and the interview is extraordinary. It's funny. It's odd. If you watch it patiently, though, you will rejoice in the utterly unique way God may call individuals to their special life vocation.
