AO year 7 pre-read. "Then the Books were handed out: the very first one went to Ama. 'This is what we've been waiting for,' he called out, as he held his copy high, his eyes brimming with tears." Missionary biographies just put things into right perspective. This one was simple to read but such a powerful story.

I hear terms like "unreached people groups," "Bible translation," and "spiritual warfare" almost every day. This is a vibrant true story which puts life and meaning into those words. I am so thankful for who have gone before me and for the testimony of ordinary people serving an extraordinary God.

This is the second time I have read this book and it is just as powerful as the first time. Highly recommend.

Loved this story of her life as a missionary. Short chapters focusing on the power of God’s word. Re-reading it immediately with the family as a read aloud. An easy read with a captivating story.

I couldn’t put the book down. Such a powerful story that had me in awe of God, page after page.

“A fost marele privilegiu al vieții mele să trăiesc si să lucrez alături de acești oameni minunați, să le aduc Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu si să văd cum acesta le schimbă viețile. […] Traducând Epistola lui Pavel către Efeseni, verset cu verset, idee cu idee, am fost cucerită de forța mesajului. Îmi imaginam reacția celor din Balango când vor auzi despre copleșitoarea dragoste a lui Dumnezeu. Cartea Efeseni îi va învăța în mod limpede cum pot trăi ca niște creștini. M-am rugat si m-am întrebat: Cum oare vom face ca acestea să ajungă la urechile întregii lumi?” Joanne Shetler
