Opis

This book is the captivating real-life story of God's work in the most dynamic mission field in the world, the human heart. Mel's story combines heart-crushing hurt and adrenaline-pumping hope as God shapes a man to be His fruitful servant. I was in Brazil with Mel and Romilda when they travelled back to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the first church Mel planted in Campinas, a church that has now planted nine congregations. As I watched long lines of people waiting to personally thank them for their ministry, I realized I was watching God's story unfold before my very eyes. This book gives you a front-row seat to the action. -Pastor Deric Bartlett, Lead Pastor, City Centre Baptist Church, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada Mel Cuthbert, a native of Hamilton, Ontario, graduated from the London College of Bible and Missions.
