About 35 years ago I was introduced to a couple home on leave. They were pioneer missionaries to a tribe in PNG.

They had some incredible stories.

I read that book many years ago, and still remember it vividly.

Great review, Chuck! :-)

I met Mr. Richardson in Kansas City. I miss my brother.

His book “Secrets of the Koran” was my favorite.

Thank you, Chuck! You picked a wonderful book to recommend.

Indeed, Don's premise, that God prepares peoples for encountering Him, is equally true on a personal level. Every believer has been primed since before creation began.

In a nutshell, every culture has redemptive analogies in it that enable it to connect with the redemption of mankind by Jesus,that give the hearers a personal connection to the Gospel message in their own language and traditions.

The Peace Child is a beautiful example of this. He also wrote that book.

Don Richardson is an excellent writer.
