Opis

Sub Title: "REFLECTIONS ON A LIFETIME IN MISSIONS" This book tells stories from a lifetime in missions beginning with childhood in a home where parents, themselves former missionaries, and 6 children all involved in Christian ministry, 4 of whom served in cross cultural missions, were influenced for world missions. The stories move on through college, marriage and on to overseas ministry in Latin America which take the reader to remote locations throughout the continent. Years spent in student ministries in the U.S., including directing the Intervarsity student missions conventions at Urbana, IL, prepared the author for a broader worldwide ministry. Organizing the Consultation on World Evangelization (COWE), sponsored by the Lausanne Committee, held in Pattaya, Thailand, provided intimate contact with world leaders in missions. As International Director of the World Evangelical Fellowship, located in Singapore, the author was privileged to travel extensively around the world which provided many opportunities to see God at work in a wide variety of places both geographical and cultural. Stories were gathered from the lives of Christians both in humble and remote places as well as from the lives of well-known Christian and mission leaders.
