Summary

For this month’s book in the spiritual formation category, we go back to a missionary classic – one that many know about, but few have read. Others of us read it many years ago but have forgotten its spiritual message. Not only does the example of Hudson Taylor give us spiritual principles that are still valuable, but this book also takes us back to the beginnings of one of the great faith missions, China Inland Mission.
