Publisher's Summary

There is no greater story in the history of humanity than that of the undying love between the Lord Jesus and His people. The most famous story in eternity will always be how the Son of God came and died a horrible death on the cross for our sins. However, there have been countless thousands of men and women who have reciprocated that love, and have walked to certain death in order to tell the lost about the lover of their souls. They faced raining clouds of arrows and spears, shipwrecks, starvation and hunger, dark jungles and slavery, and more than could ever be listed here.

David Livingstone, Papeiha, Henry Martyn, Mary Slessor, Archibald Forder, John Williams, the sailors of The Duff, Raymond Lull, and many more. This book tells the stories of these brave men and women, and is dedicated to those abandoned lovers who gave everything for the King of Kings. Some of the missionaries you may have heard of, but there are many will be new to you. But whether you know their names or not, their stories will set you ablaze for the lover of your soul once again.
