Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "God had an only Son and He was a missionary." With these words, David Livingstone confirmed that he, too, would spend his life telling people in far-off lands about the love of God. This explorer, doctor, author, and missionary longed to see "the smoke of a thousand villages," because huddled around African tribal fires were people who might never hear the story of God's love unless missionaries obeyed God's call to serve Him. David Livingstone is one of 22 men and women whose exciting adventures will be enjoyed by the whole family. As you read each of these wonderful stories aloud during family times or on your own, you will see how you, too, can reach out to your world through deeds and prayer to tell others the good news about Jesus and His love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Greatest Missionary Generation: Inspiring Stories from around the World, Larry Sharp establishes the characteristics, challenges, successes, and uniqueness of an incredible generation of missionaries. It is of no small significance that the missionaries of the second half of the twentieth century prepared the way for God’s people of the twenty-first century. Post-World War II purveyors of the gospel had incredible opportunities and open doors, and they used them for the glory of God. Through the retelling of personal stories of the missionaries in New Guinea, Brazil, Mexico, and more, lesser known details of missionary activity in the 1950s and 1960s are revealed, including the courage, personal calling, sacrifice, and excellence of these brave Christians. Their incredible journeys prove that their legacy is worth celebrating and remembering. It is of utmost importance for future generations to understand and appreciate the previous generation’s struggles and triumphs. The Greatest Missionary Generation will mobilize hearts to love and serve the Lord. Key points and features: • An in-depth look into the lives and work of missionaries who served in the decades after World War II • Includes photos

This book was released on with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's sometimes difficult for those of us steeped in the comforts and ease of today’s modern world to grasp what a life of radical faith can look like. What was ministry like for missionaries living a hundred years ago? What happened "back in the day" when brave missionary pioneers forsook all to follow the calling of God into completely unknown territories? How did God’s faithfulness sustain them? This collection of 24 short stories of missionary adventures from around the globe is a cold shower for a sleeping Church. It reminds us of the hefty price missionaries must be willing to pay to prepare previously untilled soil for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It also drives home this astounding truth: that God provides for those whom He calls — even when things don’t go as planned. Filled with incredible front-line stories, including both victories and defeats, this book will leave you with a newfound respect and gratitude for kingdom forerunners whom God used to open doors to previously unreached people groups. It will also leave you to grapple with a piercing question: How big is your God?

Download or read book The Book of Missionary Heroes written by Basil Mathews and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: True stories of the thrilling adventures and daring deeds of the great heroes of sea and land who have faced perils among wild beasts and wilder men to tell of the love of God. Through the centuries, the world has been witness to an unbroken trail of heroes--men and women who braved privation, danger, and death to bring the light of Jesus Christ to the darkest corners of the earth. Some are well known, others long forgotten, but all belong to the same indomitable band of torch-bearers. Join a few of these heroes as they face cannibals, battle slave traders, and care for sick enemies, always with one mission at the forefront--to serve their Lord and bring others into His light. "No field of experience offers greater possibilities for stories of heroism and adventure than the lives of pioneer missionaries. Mr. Mathews is a master narrator as his lives of Livingstone and Paul clearly prove. Here he has given us stories of early pioneers such as Wilfred of Sussex and Francis of Assisi; adventurers in the South Seas, like John Williams and Patteson; African pathmakers like George Grenfell and Alexander Mackay; apostles to Moslems like Raymond Lull, Henry Martyn and Archbald Forder. There are also stories of native Christian converts like Kapiolani of Hawaii, Khama of Africa, and Abdallah, the Moslem boy. These true stories are especially good reading for boys and give excellent material for teachers of boys and girls." -The Missionary Review, Volume 45, January, 1922 "In this book Mr. Mathews presents the Missionary Movement in action. Starting with Paul, the lives of a number of hero missionaries 'are told as yarns to boys and girls around a camp fire.' The volume is divided into four books, taking up in turn, The Pioneers, The Island Adventurers, The Pathfinder of Africa and Heroines and Heroes of Plateau and Desert. "Although written for boys and girls, it provides an excellent insight for an older person into the lives of twenty-five men and women who have been faithful. Every Student Volunteer should gain a greater consciousness of the bigness of his task, and every non-volunteer's sympathy for the missionary cause should be warmed after reading this book."

This book describes the encounters of the missionaries and the chapters which follow gives a detailed account of the missionary activities in the deserts of Mongolia, in the country of the Telugus (Andhra Pradesh, in South India) in Japan, in Taiwan (Formosa), in Tibet, and in China. We must be thankful to such persons who sacrificed everything for others.
