William Carey (1761-1834) one of the first great missionaries.
Carey used to go to a world globe and weep for the souls in India. God led him to India
and he did a great work. A good book is called:
"Life of William Carey - Shoemaker & Missionary"
by George Smith C.I.E., LL.D.

- John Bunyan (1628-1688)
What can we say – one of the greatest books ever written on the Christian life.
Bro. Bunyan covers all aspects of your quest for salvation, the obstacles to getting it,
the battles that rage afterwards. If you want to know about the Christian life along
with some great doctrine on Justification by faith – then this is the book – another must have.

John G. Paton
You never read anything like it – Hollywood can’t touch it for action and life threatening situation.
John Paton got a burden for the cannibals of New Hebrides in the mid 1800’s – yes,
they ate people and just got finished eating two missionaries before he landed.
Paton endured the loss of all things including his wife and baby but he he got there
they were all cannibals – when he eventually left they were all Christians!
His story will curl your hair and take away any excuse you have for not witnessing.
