Description
"It is not so much great faith that we need, but faith in a great God." At the age of 21, Hudson Taylor ventured on a dangerous sea voyage to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the people of China.
Why would a young man give up a promising future to venture into an alien country, let alone one torn apart by war? Would the Chinese accept him and would God bless his vision?
His story comes alive in this dramatised biography that relays the humanity, humour, and heart of the man widely regarded as one of the most significant and influential missionaries in the history of the Christian Church.
Hudson Taylor and China by David Malcolm Bennet and David Bennett encapsulates these questions and more, providing a gripping narrative of faith and determination.
