These are the stories of five ordinary womenÔÇöSarah Edwards, Lilias Trotter, Gladys Aylward, Esther Ahn Kim, and Helen RoseveareÔÇöwho trusted in their extraordinary God as he led them to do great things for his kingdom. No├½l Piper holds up their lives and deeds as examples of what it means to be truly faithful. Learning about these women will challenge readers to make a difference for Christ in their families, in the church, and throughout the world. ### Review ÔÇ£A fine work of drawing the reader into the historical and spiritual life of these early pioneer missionaries. Well worth reading as a family.ÔÇØ ÔÇöLars and Elisabeth Gren (Elliot) ÔÇ£No├½l Piper tells the stories of five women whose lives declare something we have almost forgottenÔÇöwhat it means to be a Christian.
