This book has fundamentally changed my life and faith experience. I’ve become increasingly aware of the sacrifice that’s required in service for God, but also the joy and fulfillment that comes from full surrender. I had felt called to foreign missions before, but now I’m more convinced than ever that this is the work God has for me and that if I learn from the lives of the great men and women that came before me, the Lord will bless my efforts and guide my path to find “success” in reaching the people for ahis kingdom.— Audible customer, Audible listener
