Alexander Mackay Alexander Mackay was a highly-skilled young man dedicated to the Lord and His mission field. He was one of the first missionaries to Uganda. He faced the triple issues of slavery, pagan idolatry, and cannibalism. He patiently labored in this land and ultimately was martyred for His God. He willingly gave His life so that others might hear of the True Life, Jesus Christ. What an example! James Hannington James Hannington longed to be a missionary and follow in the footsteps of Alexander Mackay. He faced hardship after hardship, but his zeal never failed. He wanted to live his life on the mission field and to die for His God. Ultimately, that is exactly what happened.

Add To Cart   Ann Judson & Pandita Ramabai
Ann Judson Ann Judson left family, home, and prosperity to follow her husband and the Lord Jesus Christ to bring the gospel to the far-off land of Burma. She did this in a time when travel was difficult, there were no furloughs or retirement, and little or no support. She was a woman of great courage whose walk with the Lord will perhaps inspire others to follow the Lord as well. Pandita Ramabai, This is the incredible story of Pandita Ramabai, a woman from India, and how she came to the Lord in a nearly impossible situation in a pagan country. India was an appalling country for women, and the situation was much worse for widows and young girls. Pandita Ramabai not only found the Lord, but also became a tool in His Hand to bring hundreds to Him for salvation. There is much for all of us to learn from her life. One quote I copied down was: "I wish them (the unconverted) to see the contrast in every thing where love rules." What a motto for all believers to practice! We pray you shall be blessed by reading her biography.

Add To Cart   Chance to Die
Our favorite biographies are those in which the author uses many of the original writings from books or journals of the person who is the subject of the biography. This lets the reader take a peek into the mind and thoughts of that person. Mrs. Elliot employs this method in her biography of Amy Carmichael. For those of you who do not know, Amy Carmichael was a missionary to India where she rescued and mothered hundreds of children. She was a very dedicated missionary, and her dedication is an inspiration to the rest of us.

His next earnest desire was to stop the horrors of the slave trade. His life was one of loneliness and suffering, but he never lost sight of his mission as a servant to the Lord. He was faithful to Christ unto the end. You will also enjoy reading about his precious relationship with his dear wife, Mary. Livingstone's life will be an encouragement to you.

Add To Cart   Drummer's Wife
The Drummer's Wife is based on the factual stories of 14 martyrs during the 1500's in the Netherlands. This is excellent reading material if read alone, but it can also be a powerful read-aloud-to-the-family book. It will provoke a lot of thought and discussion on the essence of "standing for Christ." You will never be the same after reading these stories of believers who truly understood the meaning of giving up life in this world for life with Jesus in the next.The back cover states that the only true fruit of the Reformation was the Anabaptists. This claim may go a little too far for an otherwise excellent book. Highly recommended.

Fanny Crosby was a humble, little woman who was blind, and yet she "saw" spiritually so much more than many of us sighted followers of Christ.

Add To Cart   John Bunyan & Dwight L Moody Biography

John Bunyan
John Bunyan was a preacher, author, husband, father and one of the most faithful followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. He chose prison rather than freedom. He chose poverty rather than riches. He chose loneliness rather than family. Through it all, he spent his time studying God's Word and writing from his prison cell. He wrote Pilgrim's Progress which became the world's best selling book next to the Bible. Surely, as the Bible says, "their works do follow them." John Bunyan's works are still following him as thousands upon thousands are still reading about him and his books. His life is well worth reading!

D. L. Moody
This biography recounts the life of a busy man who, upon conversion to the Lord Jesus Christ, gave his life wholly to Him. D. L. Moody loved children and knew they, too, needed to hear about his Saviour. He put his love into action by creating Sunday schools for the poor and needy children of Chicago. He taught others how to do what he was doing, so they, too, could reach lost children for the Lord. It is incredible what one life, wholly surrendered to God, can do!

We just love it when we can bring you an autobiography, instead of a biography. The author, can, in his/her own words, share the spiritual highlights of his/her life, instead of a second-party choosing what to share. Modern day biographies often read like high-paced adventure stories, instead of revealing the true nature of a true Christian's life, that of a servant. Gladys Aylward was a woman who came to Christ and wanted to give her life on the mission field for Him. No mission board would have her, but she knew God called her to go, so go she went. God provided for her every step of the way. She was a constant witness sharing the gospel throughout the hundreds of villages in China. Hers was a life lived for the Master. You will be blessed by reading her story. She was a little woman but she served a big God. Your faith will be strengthened by reading about our marvelous God Who sheds His light in some very dark places.

Add To Cart   Mary Bunyan
This biography is a treasure. It was written over 200years ago and focuses nearly entirely on Mary Bunyan, John’s daughter, and how she achieved spiritual victory over the countless trials in her life. Throughout the story you will glimpse the hearts of her mother and father and friends of the family who helped throughout John Bunyan’s imprisonment. To read about the faith of these people who lived through severe religious persecution, the plague, and harsh poverty, and who could still praise God, and live for Him, was convicting of the shallowness of our own modern day Christianity. These people lived and breathed the Scriptures. We were challenged to speak, live, minister, disciple and love in a far more real way than the status quo of modern Christianity because of reading this book. This is excellent reading and recommended for teens and adults.

This biography will most likely leave a deep impression upon you. This woman, after finding the Savior, wanted to give Him her life, and she did. After graduating from medical school, she went to the Belgian Congo. She labored morning, noon, and night ministering to the people. In 1960 the colony gained independence, but four years later the Simba rebellion threw the country into anarchy. The rebels began a reign of terror, and missionaries were under a constant threat of personal assault and death. This woman, after giving God her all, was personally assaulted by one of the men. Most of us would have wondered where God was. Why didn't He protect her from such a horrible thing? She lived to praise His name. Mature teenagers and adults will find this book to be a real encouragement to their spiritual walk.

William Carey
The saying "You are becoming what you will be" certainly rang true in William Carey's life. As a boy, he possessed an insatiable appetite for learning of every type. He was an avid reader and studier of nature. He was diligent and displayed great perseverance. He used all these traits in his life's calling of being a pioneer missionary to India. He served the Lord Jesus Christ faithfully unto the end.

Hudson Taylor
Hudson Taylor was a pioneer missionary to China. He labored incessantly day and night to bring the Gospel to China's millions. His life is an inspiration of faithfulness and steadfastness, always keeping his heart aimed on the goal set before him. He suffered much sickness and personal deprivation with a willing spirit as he continued his work for the Lord. It is amazing to read what one man, wholly dedicated to God, can accomplish with God's blessing, leadership, and direction.

This is an excellent biography. It is written for youth, but due to the nature of some of the content, (the horrors of slavery) it would probably be best for the child to be twelve or older. William Wilberforce was a contemporary of John Wesley and John Newton, and was a very influential member of Parliament. He worked tirelessly to end slavery. He was an extremely wealthy man before he came to know the Lord. Once, he came to the Lord, his life conformed more and more to Christ, until he had expended his health and his entire fortune to help the poor, and yet, he continued to praise God. This man accomplished what would take most men several lifetimes.
