Adoniram Judson: Devoted for Life (Vance Christie)
Explore the life of America’s first foreign missionary, Adoniram Judson (1788-1850), who was devoted to serving for over 38 years in Burma, no matter the cost. The son of a congregational minister, Judson was a precocious young man who aspired to gain exceptional worldly fame through some prominent secular career. But following a crisis of faith and a stunning turn of events that exposed the vanity of mere temporal pursuits, he went on to study for the Christian ministry and to dedicate his life to missionary service.
With unshakable faith in God and His Word, Judson persevered through staggering difficulties. His unremitting labor and devotion were used of the Lord to spread the Gospel and to establish healthy Christian congregations throughout Burma. Judson’s example was an inspiration to untold thousands in his own day and still has the power to encourage and instruct believers today.

Missionary Triumph Over Slavery (Peter Masters)
We are being told today that Christian missionaries of the past were tools of colonial oppression and destroyers of culture. For this reason Christianity is called a white mans religion, best shunned by Afro-Caribbean and Asian people. The story of missionary William Knibb shows how wildly wrong this is.
Persecuted by British rulers in Jamaica because he opposed settler’s abuses, he was pivotal in swinging British public opinion behind legislation to end colonial slavery. This is the true story of valiant missionary work covering the emancipation of slaves and the great Jamaican Awakening.

A Boy of Two Worlds (Lorna Eglin)
So unlike many Christian children’s books, this is not a watered-down ‘easy-believism’, but rather an exploration of all that is involved in becoming a Christian, from belief to discipleship to becoming an evangelist yourself – yet all put in simple language and parables the young can understand. I can highly recommend this doctrinally sound and extremely educational children’s book, as of a higher standard which can safely be distributed to the children in the our churches without misleading them to a simplistic view of conversion.

Kanousky, the Indian Boy, and David Brainerd, the Indian’s Missionary
Two 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.”

Kindling a Passion for Missions in a Child’s Heart: audio CD (Dennis Gundersen)
Should your children go on a missions trip? Should you go as a family? How can you best prepare your children and family for such a trip? Dennis Gundersen helps parents work through these questions.
Most importantly of all, parents need to be helping their children to see and discover that this world is a harvest of souls in need of the gospel, so that they don’t grow up having eyes only for their own little world.
This audio message (about 1 hour play time) can help parents learn how to lift their children’s vision to see these vast worldwide needs, and grasp that not every Christian has to end up being a missionary; but we can all have a heart for the tribes and peoples and nations around the globe whom the Lord is calling to Himself.
