INTERNATIONAL ADVENTURES SERIES
Peace Child
A stone age tribe's encounter with the gospel
Imagine sharing the gospel with the tribe of cannibals who admire Judas's betrayal more than Jesus' sacrifice. Among the headhunting Sawi of Irian Jaya, treachery was an ideal that generations of their people had perfected. The heroes of Sawi legend weren't those who took the greatest number of head in battle or ambush, but those who were the most deceitful in befriending their victims before they took their heads.
When missionaries Don and Carol Richardson searched for the key that would open the gospel to the Sawi, God moved in a stunning way. He revealed His true Peace Child - the ideal fulfillment of the Sawi's own redemptive analogy. Peace Child chronicles the agony - and the triumph - of the Richardsons' unforgettable sojourn among this people loved by God.
On every continent, in every nation, God is at work in and through the lives of believers. From the streets of Manila to mysterious Albania to the jungles of Ecuador and beyond. This and every title in the International Adventures series emerges as a dramatic episode that could be directed only by the hand of God. There are 14 books in this series.
