Not long before he died, the missionary Hudson Taylor commented:
There is nothing small and there is nothing great - only God is great and we should trust Him fully.

This was the testimony of a man who lived this out in full as he devoted his whole life to serving God by taking the Gospel to the people of China. His unfailing faith and total reliance upon God to sustain and keep him during the extreme difficulties and opposition and his unflinching desire to reach the lost throughout that dark and distant land, was proved on many occasions.

Jim Cromarty relates details of Hudson's sacrificial life in an exciting and lively style for today's readers, especially young people. Not only does it highlight spiritual and practical lessons we can learn, but is particularly useful for parents to read with their children as it also includes at the end of each chapter some questions or thoughts for further discussion.
