In an age when inspirational can often mean just feeling good, this biography goes far deeper. Adoniram Judson's commitment to the cause of Christ in Burma (Myanmar) came at a cost that challenges easy Christianity and sporadic devotion. We begin to realise that, over the years, there have been tough assignments that God has asked his people to undertake, where the conditions might have taken a personal toll and the real losses have to measured against the greater good of lives saved and Christ honoured. You will be in awe of Judson's 'devotion for life. ' Your own perseverance will be rekindled to press ahead with your own God-challenges and Christ-call. Writer, Vance Christie, has done a great job of following the main story line, while still managing to fold in the side stories. One of the best biographies I've read in a while!
