In the early 2000's, London's property market was booming.
Raithatha quickly built up a portfolio, using one property as
security for the next and striking deal after deal from his tiny
study in a suburban semi. In 2005 a full page portrait of Manoj
appeared in the Telegraph's property section. Working crazy hours,
when the financial crisis burst in 2008 he found himself horribly
overextended. Then his little son fell ill. Christian friends
maintained a prayer vigil for four days, and when the child
recovered, Manoj and his wife Maria started attending a church.
Within weeks, the couple committed their lives to Christ. Today
Manoj runs South Asian Forum, a network of Christians from an Asian
background.
