"His strength is made perfect in our weakness." Amy Carmichael's life is an example of this. She was a normal, single woman who's life was entirely submitted to the Lord. She was just an obedient servant. It wasn't allways easy. Things didn't always work out how they had hoped and prayed, but God's hand was with them all the way as they miraculously searched for and gathered the precious little temple girls, saving them from a sinful life of abuse at the temples in serving the Indian gods. This is a very good and inspiring true story. Definitely worth reading. The readers vary, but most are pleasant to listen to.


(4 stars)

This is a sweet, beautiful recount of children served in Jesus name by heroes of the faith. It's written by a godly missionary woman who knows the word well, travails through trials in a godly manner & lived a life of sacrifice for the One True King.
