Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of the C. E. Z. M.S Work and Workers in China: With Numerous Illustrations I have been permitted to read Behind the Great Wall in the proof-sheets. It appears now in the full dress of publication, and goes to make friends in the world, the ever-widening world, thank God, of those who read missionary literature. I venture to predict for it a large circle of grateful friends and a rich fruit-bearing from amongst them. For assuredly they will find in this book a message which will do admirably well those two works always necessary to the kindling and sustaining of missionary zeal - the clear and full conveyance of facts, and the gentle yet powerful application of the appeal. For me, China has for long years been a household word in the most literal sense. I was still a boy when I saw my beloved brother, now Missionary Bishop in Mid-China, go forth "for the Name´s sake," at the age of nearly thirty, in December, 1857. And in less than four years another dear brother, now his Archdeacon, followed him, in a sailing vessel, which rounded the Cape, and was months on the way. From those days to these I have always seemed to see China, and to hear it, and have indeed learned to love it through these loved and honoured ones, and now through their children, who are missionaries in their turn, and through many another friend, close to my heart in Christ.
