“Unless God helps us, there is no hope,” Captain Morris yelled over the roar of the storm. Hudson Taylor had to agree. Indeed the Dumfries might sink this very day and he would never live to see the shores of China, a land whose people he was certain God had called him to.

Ida Scudder: Healing Bodies, Touching Hearts (Janet and Geoff Benge)
Ida stamped her foot. Her friends were wrong. “I will not be a missionary to India like my parents!” she retorted. “Don’t any of you say I will be, because I won’t – never, ever, ever.” Ida had never forgotten the faces of starving Indian children. She hated India – it was full of horrible situations she could do nothing about.

Isobel Kuhn: On the Roof of the World (Janet & Geoff Benge)
A fellow missionary had said, “When you get to China, all the scum of your nature will rise to the top.” It surely had, mused Belle.

Jacob DeShazer: Forgive Your Enemies (Janet and Geoff Benge)
Three thousand feet above China, it was Jake’s turn to jump. He slid his pistol, knife, and ration packets into the pockets of his leather jacket and edged toward the open hatch of the B-25 bomber. He checked the tension on the harness of his parachute, made sure the handle of the ripcord was free, and then began lowering himself out of the hatch and into the darkness.

John Flynn: Into the Never Never (Janet & Geoff Benge)

The angry mob demanded that John come out of the house. Soon John found himself being marched in the dark to a neighboring town, flanked by three hundred people.

Norman Grubb : Mission Builder (Janet & Geoff Benge)
Norman read the first sentence of the letter again: “The whole country round seems to be really greedy to hear the Word of God, many are deciding for Christ.” As he read, he heard a clear voice inside his head say, “That’s where you are to go.” A shiver ran down Norman’s spine. He was positive God had just directed him to join C.T. Studd and his mission in the heart of Africa. That was where his life’s work lay.

Pilipinto: The Jungle Adventures of a Missionary’s Daughter (Valerie Elliot Shepard)
In 1956, Valerie’s young missionary father, Jim Elliot, and four of his friends make contact with members of a primitive Ecuadorian tribe. What happens next shocks the world! Three years later . . . Valerie is just a toddler when her mother, Elisabeth Elliot, receives a surprising invitation. As she teaches the Waorani about God’s “carvings,” they encounter the greatest gift of all.
Pilipinto is an amazing story of courage and redemption—but it is also the simple story of a young American girl as she grows up alongside the indigenous peoples of the 1950s Amazon jungle. The jungle, despite its dangers, becomes a delightful playground where Valerie learns to trust God’s hand and respect all His gifts.
Beautifully illustrated in watercolor and featuring vintage photographs and never before published pages from Elisabeth Elliot’s diary, Pilipinto is a child-appropriate introduction to several notable Christian heroes and heroines of the twentieth century—powerful models of faith who take selfless action for the kingdom of God.
