Charles Finney: The Great Revivalist (Book)

http://www.amazon.com/Charles-Finney-Revivalist-Barbour-Paperback/dp/1577485068/ref=pd_sim_b_12 

Nearly everywhere Charles G. Finney (1792-1875) preached, revival broke out. A brilliant lawyer who turned to preaching after an emotional conversion in his late twenties, Finney was used mightily by God in America's "Second Great Awakening." Thousands of people accepted Christ during Finney's eight-year revival tour of New York, New England, and the mid-Atlantic states. It has been said that Finney's preaching altered the course of American history; whether or not that claim is exaggerated, it is certain that he had a tremendous impact on his age.

John Wesley: The Great Methodist (Book)

http://www.amazon.com/John-Wesley-Methodist-Barbour-Paperback/dp/1557489785/ref=pd_sim_b_7

John Wesley (28 June 1703 – 2 March 1791) was a Church of England cleric and Christian theologian. Wesley is largely credited, along with his brother Charles Wesley, as founding the Methodist movement which began when he took to open-air preaching in a similar manner to George Whitefield. In contrast to George Whitefield's Calvinism, Wesley embraced the Arminian doctrines that were dominant in the 18th-century Church of England. Methodism in both forms was a highly successful evangelical movement in the United Kingdom, which encouraged people to experience Jesus Christ personally.
Wesley's teachings, known as Wesleyanism, provided the seeds for both the modern Methodist movement, the Holiness movement, Pentecostalism, the Charismatic Movement, and Neo-charismatic churches, which encompass numerous denominations across the world. In addition, he refined Arminianism with a strong evangelical emphasis on the Reformed doctrine of justification by faith.

 

George Whitefield: Pioneering Evangelist(Book)

http://www.amazon.com/George-Whitefield-Pioneering-Evangelist-Heroes/dp/1577487354/ref=pd_sim_b_5/186-0805604-1227266 

George Whitefield (December 27, 1714 – September 30, 1770), also known as George Whitfield, was an English Anglican priest who helped spread the Great Awakening in Britain, and especially in the British North American colonies. He was one of the founders of Methodism and of the evangelical movement generally. He became perhaps the best-known preacher in Britain and America in the 18th century, and because he traveled through all of the American colonies and drew great crowds and media coverage, he was one of the most widely recognized public figures in colonial America.

David Livingstone (Book)

http://www.amazon.com/David-Livingstone-Heroes-Faith-Wellman/dp/1593103859/ref=pd_sim_b_4

For 32 years Scottish missionary and doctor David Livingstone carried the message of the Christian gospel as he trekked more than 40,000 miles from Cape Town through central Africa. This very detailed biography in the Heroes of the Faith series gives a strong sense of his commitment to his missionary work and his courage as an explorer. Unfortunately, there is some of the usual dark-Africa nonsense about heathen, savage native tribes who speak in dialects. However, Wellman makes clear that, unlike many white colonials, Livingstone was driven not to grab people's land but to save their souls. Many whites hated him because he was outraged by slavery and treated black Africans as equals. He tried to develop trade as the key to spreading the gospel and stopping war. There is some fictionalization, especially about his childhood, but the quotes from his extensive diaries will draw readers to both the humble man of God and the public heroic adventurer.

 

John Bunyan: Author of The Pilgrim's Progress (Book)

http://www.amazon.com/John-Bunyan-Pilgrims-Progress-Paperback/dp/1557488797/ref=pd_sim_b_6

John Bunyan (28 November 1628 – 31 August 1688) was an English Christian writer and preacher, who is well-known for his book The Pilgrim's Progress. Though he was a Reformed Baptist, he is remembered in the Church of England with a Lesser Festival on August 30th, and on the liturgical calendar of the Episcopal Church (US) on August 29th.

Jonathan Edwards: The Great Awakener (Book)

http://www.amazon.com/Jonathan-Edwards-Awakener-Barbour-Paperback/dp/1577485599/ref=pd_sim_b_7

Those who remember Jonathan Edwards (1703--1758) only for his sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" overlook his many and varied contributions to American church history. A man of powerful intellect, Edwards is credited with instigating America's first Great Awakening. Beginning in 1734, six sudden conversions in his parish turned into a flood of thirty per week, ultimately drawing people from up to a hundred miles away. In addition to preaching, Edwards also wrote several books, including Treatise on Religious Affections, served as a missionary to Native American tribes, and was briefly president of the College of New Jersey (later Princeton). He died at age fifty-four after receiving a smallpox inoculation. 

 

Watchman Nee: Man of Suffering (Book)

http://www.amazon.com/Watchman-Nee-Suffering-Barbour-Paperback/dp/1577482239/ref=pd_sim_b_2

Watchman Nee (1903–1972) was a Chinese Christian author and church leader during the early 20th century. He spent the last 20 years of his life in prison and was severely persecuted by the Communists in China. Together with Wangzai, Zhou-An Lee, Shang-Jie Song, and others, Nee founded The Church Assembly Hall, later also known as the "Local churches" . or more commonly as meaning "assembly hall".

Born into a Methodist family, Watchman Nee experienced a religious revival, and joined the Church of Heavenly Peace, Fuzhou in 1920 at age 17 and began writing in the same year. In 1921, he met the British missionary M. E. Barber, who was a great influence on him. Through Miss Barber, Nee was introduced to many of the Christian writings which were to have a profound influence on him and his teachings. Nee attended no theological schools or Bible institutes. His knowledge was acquired through studying the Bible and reading various Christian spiritual books. During his 30 years of ministry, beginning in 1922, Nee traveled throughout China planting churches among the rural communities and holding Christian conferences and trainings in Shanghai. In 1952 he was imprisoned for his faith; he remained in prison until his death in 1972.

Samaritan's Purse International Relief

http://www.samaritanspurse.org/

Samaritan's Purse is a non-denominational evangelical Christian humanitarian organization that works worldwide to assist people in physical need alongside their Christian missionary work. The organization’s president is Franklin Graham, son of Christian evangelist Billy Graham. The name of the organization is based on the New Testament Parable of the Good Samaritan, in which Jesus uses a parable to teach people the second great commandment - how to "love thy neighbour as thyself".

Samaritan’s Purse works in more than 100 countries around the world. International headquarters are in Boone, North Carolina, with additional U.S. facilities in Charlotte and North Wilkesboro, N.C. Affiliate offices are in Australia, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Hong Kong, Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. Field offices are located in some 20 countries across five continents.

The organization's mission statement states that the organization seeks to meet the spiritual and physical needs of people suffering from war, poverty, disaster, disease, and famine, with the purpose of global missionary work attendant on humanitarian aid. The organization aims at service for the church worldwide to propagate "the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ".[2]
Samaritan’s Purse seeks to specialize in emergency relief, shelter, water and sanitation, food and nutrition, medical care and public health, HIV/AIDS, and community-based livestock and livelihood projects.

[edit] Ongoing programs

In addition to responding to emergencies worldwide, Samaritan’s Purse includes several ongoing ministries.
• Operation Christmas Child is a 'global Christmas gift exchange' project operated by Samaritan's Purse. Each November it opens thousands of locations, typically at churches or schools, to collect shoeboxes filled with toys, school supplies, personal items, and other gifts. These boxes are then distributed as Christmas gifts, accompanied by Christian literature.[3] From 1993 through 2008, some 69 million gift boxes have been handed out in more than 130 countries.
• Disaster Relief responds to emergency situations. In the United States and Canada, Samaritan’s Purse mobilizes teams of volunteers to repair houses damaged by natural disasters. The organization has four tractor-trailer units loaded with emergency supplies and equipment. Each can serve as a self-contained base in a disaster zone.
• World Medical Mission, the medical arm of Samaritan’s Purse, was founded in 1977 by brothers Dr. Richard Furman and Dr. Lowell Furman to enable doctors to serve short-term assignments at overwhelmed missionary hospitals. The Post-Residency Program supports physicians as they serve two-year terms in mission hospitals and consider becoming career missionaries. World Medical Mission also operates a warehouse that ships equipment and supplies to mission hospitals and provides them with technical support.
• Children’s Heart Project provides surgery for children born with heart defects in countries where proper care is not available. Children are brought to North America, where services are donated by hospitals, surgeons, and host families and churches..
• HIV/AIDS Projects mobilize private, church, corporate, and government resources to respond to the AIDS pandemic. In partnership with the President’s Emergency Plan For AIDS Relief, Samaritan’s Purse is working in East Africa with education about the disease and abstinence-based prevention programs.
• Turn on the Tap is a campaign to provide safe drinking water in the developing world. Samaritan’s Purse-Canada holds the license to build BioSand Water Filters, which can provide a family with a perpetual source of safe drinking water. Samaritan’s Purse also drills and repairs wells, sets up large-scale filters in disaster zones, and helps to educate communities in hygiene and sanitation.

Eric Liddell (Men of Faith) (Book)


http://www.amazon.com/Eric-Liddell-Faith-Catherine-Swift/dp/1556611501/ref=pd_sim_b_41

 

 One of the greatest heroes of the Cross in this centuryEric Liddell, hero of the film Chariots of Fire, risked becoming a national disgrace at the 1924 Paris Olympics when he refused to run on a Sunday. Disqualifying himself from the finals, Britain's hope of a medal was sacrificed as well. But the thinly veiled criticism in the press turned to sensational acclaim when Eric entered—and won—a race for which he was completely untrained, finishing a full five meters ahead of the favorite.He was a celebrity, but the faith which had inspired his courageous stand stirred in him again, and at the height of his fame he announced that he was leaving athletics to return as a missionary to the land of his birth, China. This story of "God's Athlete" makes for exciting reading.From renowned Scottish athlete to missionary in China.

John and Betty Stam: Missionary Martyrs (Book)


http://www.amazon.com/John-Betty-Stam-Missionary-Martyrs/dp/1577488342/ref=pd_sim_b_39

 

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." Those words of Jesus Christ, in John 15:13, are an eternal tribute to John and Betty Stam, who lost their lives for sharing the Gospel. While students at Moody Bible Institute, John and Betty felt God's call to the mission field of China-where within a few years they had been arrested by hostile Communist soldiers, held for ransom, and then beheaded. Though their mission was brief, their courage led hundreds of other young men and women to volunteer for missionary service.

Billy Sunday: Evangelist of the Sawdust Trail (Book)



Before there was Billy Graham, there was Billy Sunday. An evangelist of great renown in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Billy Sunday (1862-1935) gained his first fame by playing major league baseball. Four years into his career with the Chicago White Sox, he met Jesus--then retired from the game four years later to enter the Christian ministry. Sunday's three hundred revivals, featuring his fiery preaching style, attracted an estimated one hundred million listeners.

Hudson Taylor: Founder, China Inland Mission (Book)



From early childhood, Hudson Taylor (1832--1905) dreamed of becoming a missionary in China. Though he would struggle with his faith throughout his youth, by age seventeen he had settled his spiritual issues and acknowledged God's call to the mission field. In China, Taylor took the unusual step of adopting native garb, which helped him earn the respect of many Chinese. Depending entirely on God for his financial support and for protection from hostile elements of Chinese society, Taylor lead a work that eventually became the China Inland Mission, which laid the groundwork for much of that nation's modern-day Christianity.

Amy Carmichael: Abandoned to God (Book)



Amy Carmichael (1867-1951), missionary to India, founded the Dohnavur Fellowship to rescue children from lives of neglect and poor treatment. Born into a strong Presbyterian family in Ireland, Carmichael chose to become "dead to the world and its applause, to all its customs, fashions, and laws" when she entered missionary service. In India, she would serve 56 years without a furlough, taking the love of Christ to many the world considered unlovely. Her life is an example of abandonment to God, characterized by total commitment, obedience and selflessness.

Gladys Aylward: 
Missionary to China


"God Was Leading Her to China and No Man Would Stop Her."
Her greatest feat is achieved during the Japanese invasion of China when she leads one hundred homeless children to safety over the mountains across enemy-held terrain. _________________ 
Enduring Threats On Her Life and the Perils of War
After reading a magazine article about China, Gladys Aylward couldn't put the idea out of her mind.  But when the China Inland Mission rejected her as a missionary, Aylward found her own way there in 1932, trusting God with every step.
Her simple dependence on God would be a recurring theme during her amazing tenure in China, a mission which lasted, with one ten-year interruption during the Communist takeover, until her death in 1970.  Enduring threats on her life and the perils of war and disease, Aylward lived an adventure for Jesus Christ that is one of the great missionary stories of the twentieth century.
An Adventure for Jesus Christ
Like Corrie ten Boom, Gladys Aylward praised God that, in her own words, "one so insignificant, uneducated, and ordinary in every way could be used to His glory for the blessing of His people in poor persecuted China."


Martin Luther:
The Great Reformer


"My conscience is captive to the Word of God...Here I stand, I can do no other."
-Martin Luther
His Greatest Desire Was to Bring God's Word to the People
Theologian, rebel, Bible translator, preacher, and prolific writer...the life of Martin Luther defies description.
Luther was, above all, a man of the people, one who's greatest desire was to bring God's Word in clear, concise language to the masses.
The Word of God was all Luther Needed to Light the Fire of the Reformation
The Word of God was indeed all Luther needed to light the fire of the German Reformation.  Recognizing from Romans 1 that God gives believers in Christ a positive righteousness, Luther posted his ninety-five theses on October 31, 1517, and from then on refused to be silenced.
Luther's many achievements, including his astounding translation of the entire Bible into an extremely readable German edition, underscore how profoundly he was used by God.  One man---guided solely by the divine, with a real faith expressed with sincerity and force---would pull back the drapes of the oppressive Middle Ages and let in the Light.

D. L. Moody: The American Evangelist (Book)

http://www.amazon.com/D-L-Moody-Evangelist-Paperback/dp/1557489327

Dwight Lyman Moody (February 5, 1837 - December 22, 1899), also known as D.L. Moody, was an American evangelist and publisher who founded the Moody Church, Northfield School and Mount Hermon School in Massachusetts (now Northfield Mount Hermon School), the Moody Bible Institute and Moody Publishers.

Charles Spurgeon: The Great Orator (Book)


A great Tabernacle was once built for a great preacher.
Such were Charles Haddon Spurgeon's preaching gifts that London's Metropolitan Tabernacle---a structure accommodating 6,000 people---was built just for him.  The great orator and preacher continued filling the pews until his death thirty years later, while also founding there a pastor's college and an orphanage, which both still exist. 
...Spurgeon delivered sermons that are eminently readable today, and still...in print over a century later.   
Rejecting the Congregationalist theology of his father, Spurgeon was baptized as an adult, and soon after discovered his God-given gift in a pastorate near Cambridge, England.  A powerful evangelist with a natural and appealing sense of humor, Spurgeon delivered sermons that are eminently readable today, and still, remarkably, in print over a century later.  
Charles Haddon Spurgeon remains a role model for seminarians and seasoned pastors alike, and an imagined fiery presence in the pulpit through his inspired writings.

Burnt Alive: The Staines and the God they loved (Book)

http://www.revelationmovement.com/store/products/show/13

It was on January 23, 1999 that the Australian missionary, Graham Staines and his two sons, were ambushed by a frenzied mob with flaming torches and burnt alive in Manoharpur, Orissa, India.

This book is a tribute to Graham Staines. It takes a look into the life and work of this man of God, among the socially outcast lepers, reaching out to them with love and compassion; and the inspiring story of the 105-year-old Mayurbhanj leprosy mission - a symbol of supreme sacrifice.

Furthermore, it delves deep into the Christian faith; the freedom of conscience, and the Christian attitude to persecution, discussing these threadbare, objectively and impartially. It tugs at your conscience with probing questions, and helps you to exercise it judiciously and fearlessly.

Sadhu Sundar Singh (book) -Phyllis Thompson



An internationally bestselling spiritual classic - the tale of Sundar Singh who was saved from suicide to become a preacher who travelled all of India.

"It is better to burn quickly and melt many souls than to burn slowly and melt none." Sadhu Sundar Singh. 

Hours before he intended to kill himself, the young Sundar had a vision of Jesus. Immediately the emptiness filling his heart was lifted. Despite opposition at home, he soon knew that he had to share his faith throughout India and Tibet. What better way than to put on the robes of a sadhu and to take to the road with no guarantee of food but with a passionate desire to live as Christ did?

Receiving the Gifts of the Holy Spirit - Bill Subritzky

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Receiving-Gifts-Holy-Spirit-Subritzky/dp/1852400005 

About the author: "Bill Subritzky is a layman, in the language of the church. He was senior partner in a large legal firm and founder and governing director of one of the largest homebuilding companies in New Zealand...He ministers in a realm and with a sense of authority totally foreign to many clergymen. Bill Subritzky's story is much more than that of a capable churchman transformed into a Spirit-filled servant of God. It is the account of a man in whom the risen Christ dwells and through whom the Holy Spirit imparts spiritual gifts.

Ex Jesuit Priest Alberto Rivera: The Truth about The Catholic Church *1 of 7* 

The Jesuits (society of Jesus) have totally taken over just about every facet of America. From all religions to all secret societies, government agencies, intelligence agancies in America and all over the world. Here an ex-jesuit priest Alberto Rivera (murdered by the Vatican in 1997 by poisoning) tells of why and how the Jesuits are doing this.
The Vatican and the Jesuits have denied that Alberto was ever a Jesuit priest. They did the same thing to Ex Catholic Priest Bernard Fresenborg. Read his book here: Thirty Years In Hell by Bernard Fresenborg. It is alleged that he too was murdered by the Jesuit Order.
Alberto Rivera was a Jesuit priest. When his mother died while he was still very young, he made up his mind that by becoming a priest he would learn the truth about God, and be able to bring that to others. If you are a Catholic, or have Catholic friends or loved ones, this story is for you.

The SECOND COMING of our Lord and Savior, Christ, will then be very imminent. It is high time that we submit our lives to our Redeemer's will.
