Description / The Advance Guard of Missions
It is said that when Columbus set foot upon a border isle of the New World, he fell upon his knees, and, with tears of joy, kissed the ground, and thanked God for His great goodness in bringing him safe to land. His comrades, bearing banners of the cross, knelt and wept beside him.
These are the inspirational and heart-warming stories of missionaries who have gone before us. Coming out of the Reformation in Europe, they sought to spread the Word of God that had previously been chained to convent walls. The cross was brought down from the church steeples and planted into human hearts.
Experience the lives of Marcus Whitman, missionary physician to the Indians; Hans Egede, pioneer Lutheran missionary to Greenland; Gordon Hall, Protestant missionary to western India; and many more, in their call to spread the gospel of the Book of heaven.
The Advance Guard of Missions tells the incredible stories of twenty-seven missionaries who gave up everyday comforts, and sometimes even their lives, in order to spread the gospel message.
