One of the famous Doolittle Raiders who first attacked Japan after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Jacob DeShazer knew this one-way mission was dangerous. Indeed, it led to his capture as a prisoner of war. Beaten, malnourished, and alone in his cell, Jacob was given a Bible - and far away from home, this American soldier became a Christian. After the war, Jacob returned to Japan and served his former enemy for thirty years as a missionary. His testimony of forgiveness and reconciliation - of love over hate - inspires a powerful gospel message for our lives today (1912-2008).
Paperback, 221 pages.
Elisabeth Elliot: Joyful Surrender
Since she was young, Elisabeth Elliot had been intrigued by missionaries who gave up so much to tell others about God's love.

Elisabeth kept a detailed journal of her life and missionary service. She returned to the United States after many years in South America, becoming one of the most influential Christian women of our time. A prolific author, speaker, and radio host, she passes on a message of joyful surrender to the world (1926-2015). Paperback, 240 pages

Ida Scudder: Healing Bodies, Touching Hearts
