David Brainerd: A Love for the Lost
$8.99Life on the American frontier in the early 1700s was very difficult – continually threatened by disease, attack, and brutally cold winters. The English and Native Americans lived side by side, which often led to conflict. David Brainerd arose as a compassionate and fearless missionary to the various Indian tribes in America.
Riding on his horse across rivers, over mountains, and through towns, Brainerd carried the gospel of Jesus Christ to the lost, the hurting, and the broken. Notable pastors and missionaries like John Wesley, William Carey, Adoniram Judson and Jim Elliot were all influenced by the life, passion, and dedication of David Brainerd.

The Diary and Journal of David Brainerd
$22.50A huge resource on the the life of Brainerd, compiled unaltered from the 2-volume 1902 edition, but with a marvelous addition: Jonathan Edwards Some Reflections and Observations on the Preceding Memoirs and etc. of David Brainerd.
Rarely published, Edwards later added this to his Life and Journal of Brainerd, because he believed this man showed us ‘the nature of true religion, and the manner of its operation when exemplified in a high degree.’Â Clearly, the same testimonies need to ring in our ears and be read of today.

Kanousky, the Indian Boy, and David Brainerd, the Indian’s Missionary
$5.50Two stories in one volume: First, read of Kanousky, whose circumstances of life are tragically altered, but discovering the truth about Jesus so transforms his life, he can later look back with gladness on the changes he was forced to endure.
The second story is of David Brainerd, briefly introducing young readers to the labors of one of America’s most persevering missionaries, unstoppable in his zeal to reach the American Indian.
The grace of the Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ, and how seeks and finds His lost sheep is the theme of the first story about Kanousky, a poor Indian boy who survives a battle and ends up lost and alone. In his need, he stumbles upon some farmers who called themselves “Christians.” God’s Word makes a lasting impression on Kanousky’s life, that grows throughout his trials and adventures, and soon, “though he was lost”, he soon regards himself as “found by the Lord.”
