Isobel Kuhn: Lights in Lisuland (Irene Howat)
$8.99
There is no nation by the name of Lisuland, but the Lisu are a people group of over one million, who live mostly in China, Burma, and Thailand. When young Isobel Kuhn first went there in 1928, very few of the Lisu people knew anything at all about Jesus Christ.
Today, the Lisu have some of highest numbers of true Christians of any people-group on the globe! The story of Isobel Kuhn is one of history’s greatest incidents of God using a single young woman, despite all her self-doubts, as she relied upon Him to use her to share the love of Christ.

Commendation:
“This book tells of the power of prayer in their lives and of the many sacrifices of creature comforts they endured joyfully and without complaint. It details fascinating descriptions of ship travel to and from China and the Philippines. It could be read profitably by an adult, a student, or read aloud to an entire family. School-aged children would find it an appropriate selection for a book report, too.” — Reformation and Revival magazine

The Good News Must Go Out (Rebecca Davis)
From one old woman’s prayer a young girl was brought to faith, a missionary was sent to Africa and then a church was born from among the people of Central Africa. Missionaries from the West came with the message of Jesus Christ – but it was the men and women saved from cannibalism, the young boys who herded goats and who carted water who really brought the Good News even farther to more and more villages and homesteads in Africa — and the Good News must go out.

Jesus Freaks, Revised and Updated Edition (DC Talk and Voice of the Martyrs)
Remember those in prison, as if you were there yourself. Remember also those being mistreated, as if you felt their pain in your own bodies (Hebrews 13:3).
These are the stories–including new, recent stories–of our brothers and sisters in Christ who have been imprisoned, mistreated, or killed because they chose to follow Jesus Christ and boldly proclaim His name.
Their stories inspire each of us to examine our heart and consider our own walk with Christ. Their stories inspire us to ask, How far am I willing to go in order to advance Christ’s kingdom in my neighborhood? My city? My world? Is Jesus worth it?
Their stories MUST be told.
