MYLES MUNROE: Born to 'Transform Followers Into Leaders'

Who can forget that smile? It lit up a room and TV screen. When Myles Munroe was tragically killed in a plane accident last November along with his wife, Ruth, and six others, his church family in the Bahamas and around the world were not the only ones devastated.

Add plantains to stews or soups in place of potatoes to get the advantages they offer.
