S1E23 - The Beginnings of American Foreign Missions

  • Summary

  • In the final chapter of Foxe's Book of Martyrs (Chapter 22), we explore the pioneering efforts of early American Christians in spreading the Gospel beyond their shores. This episode highlights the birth of American foreign missions, focusing on the courageous missionaries who risked their lives to bring the message of Christ to distant lands.

    We’ll examine key figures like Adoniram Judson, the first American missionary to Burma, and their tireless efforts to establish the Christian faith in areas hostile to it. This chapter reveals the challenges and triumphs of those who responded to God's call, offering their lives for the sake of spreading the Gospel to unreached peoples.

    Join us as we trace the roots of American missionary work, exploring the selfless sacrifices that laid the foundation for today’s global missions movement. Through these stories of bravery and faith, we’ll be reminded of the cost of following Christ's Great Commission and the profound impact of missions on the world stage.
