Risking Everything

Sarah Corson

4.9/5 (26411 ratings)

Description:The raw material for this true story is that a family of six accepts a missionary appointment to a frontier region of Bolivia in the mid 1970's. They lived among the mixed peoples and pretty much on their economic level for two years. Everything was a challenge and successfully completing each day was a victory of one sort or another.They discovered people who were slaves to desperate poverty but fiercely proud of paying for everything they received, people who felt the pain of loss of a family member's life deeply and often, because disease was rampant and doctors and medicine were rare; people who gave up a whole week's wages to build their bamboo house because they were so glad to have the pastor they had prayed for at long last, and then gave more to build a kitchen lean-to; people who suffered horribly merely for the lack of something that might be available 20 miles away but lacking a 'mobilidad' (generic term for any kind of motorized transportation) they did without.The Corsons fell in love with these people as they ministered and were ministered to. God often answered prayers in amazing ways like when the special pipe they needed for the pump to fill a new fish pond was left and forgotten by a government crew weeks earlier. (Fish would be farmed to provide protein so sadly lacking in their diet.)We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
