Amy Carmichael: Rescuer by Night
In the Trailblazers Series
Jeya was only four years old and she was terrified in the dark and gloomy temple. Between the pillars there, in the darkness, was a huge stone body. She shivered at the sight of its face. She knew this was Kali, the goddess of death. Why did she have to stay here?
Amy Carmichael, an Irish woman determined to share the love of Christ with the people of India, was used of God to deliver children like Jeya from such idols and the temple-slavery. Her story will linger long in the heart of any child who reads it.
“I can’t see! It’s dark everywhere. What place is this? Where am I?”
Why was Jeya there? Who would leave a little girl in the dark like that? Certainly not the God of love. So He sent a woman from Ireland to rescue these children from destruction – Amy Carmichael. And she had been a little girl herself once a little girl with long dark hair, and deep brown eyes. Once she had even begged God to make them blue but he hadn’t. And as Amy leaned over to pick little Jeya up and rescue her from a life of temple-slavery she was very glad that God hadn’t listened to her prayers. Blue eyes were not the eyes of India but Amy’s brown eyes were.

Amy Carmichael: Beauty for Ashes (Iain Murray)
$11.50Amy Carmichael (1867-1951) was a missionary and author who spent over fifty years of her life — without returning home — serving mainly low caste girls and boys in South India. Iain Murray’s concise biography provides an enlightening and moving account of her remarkable life and love for her Saviour, as well as perceptively drawing lessons from it.
“This is a love story of the noblest kind. It is an enriching consideration of a woman’s relentless love for her Savior, her Bible, her friends, and most uniquely, her love for lost, suffering and desperate sinners – to whom she gave her life. Such devotion as hers seems so distant. Reading this brief history will confront and help to close that distance.”
— John MacArthur, Pastor, Grace Community Church, Sun Valley, CA“Iain Murray has written a superb account of this remarkable woman’s life . . . He has read her books and her poetry, and what he writes reveals a keen understanding of the motives and undertakings of an extraordinary woman. It warmed my heart and informed my mind . . . I cannot too enthusiastically recommend this book.”
