Synopsis: It is the story of missionaries, their trials, their sorrows, their joys, their triumphs. But it is more than that. It is the story of God at work, even when missionaries are removed. True, they were used of God to lay a foundation; they were used of God to pray. True, God raised up Spirit-anointed and dedicated leaders of the national church. But who can account for the revival fires that saw 48 converts become 10,000 in five years -- and these, years of foreign occupation of their land? How do you tell that story? The author has chosen to do it by introducing incident after incident, personality after personality. It is simplicity itself. Men, women and children reveal what God has done. The method is direct -- the recitation of personal histories. The end is that the reader sees the variety of people and circumstances God weaves together into the pattern of revival. And, in addition to the cumulative effect of this narrative, is the provision of individual stories that will illustrate messages and enthrall children and adults as they are recited.
