China Inland Mission

The Obstinate Horse and Other Stories from the China Inland Mission

True stories are often more exciting than fiction, especially when they involve the heavenly Father, who delights to hear and answer prayer. These twenty-four short but factual stories highlight the power of God to protect in dangerous situations, to provide food when it seems impossible, even to use a rat to show a man the way of salvation! God still changes lives today! All of these stories remind us that He still answers prayer when people are in danger, or hungry, or lost, or in need of God?s love. The China Inland Mission was founded in 1865 by J. Hudson Taylor, whose passion was to take the message of salvation in Christ to every part of China. Taylor was inspired by George Müller and other spiritual giants of his day to trust God completely for everyday needs. The men and women who gathered around Hudson Taylor in this great work of evangelizing China for Christ also believed God could do amazing things in answer to prayer. This book tells some of those stories. Each story concludes with a short devotional titled ?What About Me?? which includes a Bible verse, some personal questions and a prayer. Read and be inspired!
