Fearless in the Forest
From playing with her sisters on a farm in Ireland, to living alone in an African forest was quite a change for Maud.

This version of Maud Kells’ story has been written in a lively style for young people and includes discussion questions suitable for youth groups.

An Open Door
When twenty-five year old Maud Kells gave up her home in Ireland to replace martyred missionaries in Congo, she was aware of the risk she was taking. Despite the state of the war-torn country, her own reserved nature and the objections of her family, she chose to follow the God who promised, ‘I am with you. That is all you need.’ This is the remarkable story of an ordinary woman who decided to walk through the door God opened for her, whatever the cost. She persisted in following that path until she was shot - and survived - fifty years later. This is a book that will challenge and inspire both young and old.

Journey of Hope
Journey of Hope is the story of a fascinating journey made through Kenya and Malawi by Jean and Brian Gibson, and the amazing people met along the way.
So many acts of faith and courage go unreported. As Jean and Brian Gibson travel through Malawi and Kenya, they meet national Christians who have overcome extraordinary challenges in their lives to preach Christ and model Christian discipleship. Christians in Africa face profound challenges including female circumcision, polygamy, child abuse and HIV. Here are 14 striking examples of how individual Christians are developing ministries of reconciliation, and offering education, health care, and new ways of living. The future for sub-Saharan Africa lies, to a remarkable degree, in the hands of the church. This is a vivid series of illustrations of how this redemptive work is being undertaken.
