Description
From the burning sands of Africa to the steaming jungles of Central America, from the crashing surf of the South Pacific to the frozen tundra of the Northland...
For centuries missionaries have invaded Satan's strongholds until the Word of God has circles the globe, although many have laid down their lvies for the sake of Christ and the spread of His Good News.
These are some of themost exhilarating stories of the Kingdom to be found anywhere. The legendary Patrick and Columba appear among the swirling mists of the barbarous past, in company with the great stories of Adoniram Judson and David Brainerd, of William Carey and Robert Morrison.
But here, too, are lesser-known yet equally-towering figures: the slave boy who returned to Africa as a missionary bishop; the building of the world's largest church in the middle of the 1800's; the fearless emissaries of the Kingdom in the midst of cannibals - they are here in all the magnificence of the Gospel.
