Multiple times Khi was struck by David Livingston’s adventurous spirit that loved Jesus so much he wanted to go farther inland Africa to share the Gospel. It was sweet one night as he wept when he heard of the smoke of a thousand villages that didn’t know Jesus. He shared that he too wants to be an adventurer for Jesus! At the end when we read about David’s death on his knees praying - Malakhi said that was the best way to die.
