Biography
Angus Buchan was born in Northern Rhodesia , Scotland , but married and settled in Zambia , due to the political and racial unrest in the country he is forced to move with his family to South Africa where he must start practically from scratch, counting only on a piece of land and an old caravan to live in.
Family
His family includes his wife Jill and 4 children, Robyn, Jilly, Andrew and Fergus. Thanks to the support of his wife, his life changes forever when he meets God when he attends a community church with her, their children and friends, who also insisted that he go. He begins to experience the power of God in the midst of his situation, which was quite serious and although he is still a farmer he becomes a preacher, both for people of his race and with the natives.
The movie

A great film with excellent filming, excellent cinematography and a very well written story The Power of Faith, based on the testimony of 4 lives, that of the farmer preacher Angus Buchan and those of other families. To understand the title of the film in English “Faith Like Potatoes” ( ” Faith like potatoes “) must wait until the end where challenges his colleagues to turn to God and ask for healing for the earth and show their faith by planting a lot of potatoes without being sure of what the result would be.
Testimony
It is a very beautiful testimony, I urge everyone to see it and they will be imbued with the power of God. http://elregresa.net/el-real-granjero-y-ministro-de-dios-angus-buchan-de-la-pelicula-fe-de-patatas-y-su-testimonio-del-poder-creativo- of-god-contribution-hna-cristina /
Men’s event in South Africa
A crowd estimated at 300,000 men gathered in Greytown , South Africa, to hear evangelist (formerly a farmer) Angus Buchan, perhaps at the largest men’s Christian event in history. The previous year 150,000 men had attended similar meetings, organized by Buchan under the name of Strong Men. Renowned African evangelist and leader Michael Cassidy commented on the meetings: “I have never seen such a large number of men gather in Africa. . . Buchan’s message touches a nerve because there is a tremendous spiritual hunger in the country. ”
