This begins a true story about adventurous faith in the rural West.With one evangelistic campaign following on the heels of another, Mac enlarges those churches and raises up four new ones in the space of four years.This book brings together stories about how the Sun of Righteousness came up in the hearts of gamblers, bootleggers, proud farmers, hesitant teenagers, Protestant ministers, and hardened newspaperman.… (altro)
Alaska has not been called "Seward's Icebox" for nothing. Ruggedly beautiful, but intensely cold in winter, it is not a paradise for ordinary people. But Mac and Eleanor Jackson were not ordinary people. They accepted a call to go to Alaska as missionaries during the years of the Great Depression and established Adventist work in Juneau, Palmer, Fairbanks, and other places. Anyone who enjoys adventure will be thrilled by the spirit of these pioneers.
Some sustantees vegetate after retirement – – not the Jacksons, however. This is the thrilling story of a retired couples experiences in Bangladesh, one of the most populous and poorest countries in the world.
