“That night we could hear the drums in the village beating. They had an urgent message. ‘Come to Kanganaman. Come to Kanganaman. Come to Kanganaman because tomorrow morning there will be two white men’s bodies to smoke and put up the tree.’ And the people from the surrounding villages came--by the hundreds. Everyone wanted to see the burial of two white men in the Sanguma tree.”
What does faith mean? A strong belief in a higher power or all-knowing being? Trust, loyalty, commitment, or love? Or is it miraculous healings, supernatural miracles, and the impossible becoming possible? Is God controlling the universe and everything happening inside of it?
Faith is a personal, intensely powerful experience that runs deeply throughout cultures and families around the world. In The Sanguma Tree, discover the pure and unwavering faith of the indigenous people of Papua New Guinea who believe in an all-powerful God. Filled with inspiring, true stories of life on the front lines of mission, uncover your own faith and believe in a wonder-working God—a God that is more powerful than even the Sanguma tree.
Believe it, it will strengthen your faith in the Almighty God.
Review byFrosty
Read it in one setting. Talked about it at church only one time and suffered innumerable telephone calls at all hours of the day requesting to borrow this book. Even friends of my friends were willing to become friends of me if only they could borrow this book. So Beware, You may become popular beyond your wildest dreams and be tempted to become an extrovert because you have so many friends simply because of this book.

Review byElizabeth
I admit that I love mission stories. Two years ago I learned that Simon Liversidge had written this book and was trying to get it published. It was just released. I was so impatient that I actually purchased the kindle edition even though I had already ordered the book. I devoured this book. I was so excited to see two of my favorite stories, "The Sanguma Tree" and ""Kukukuku for Jesus", included in the book. I really hope a sequel is printed because I know there are many stories that were not included.
