A Martyr's Grace

History & Biography

“In reading this book, I was struck again by how "ordinary" these martyrs were. Yes, many had outstanding abilities and displayed mature Christian character even during their school years, but, as the author points out, no one would have picked them out during their days at Moody as future martyrs. Yet, as martyrs, most of the people Marvin Newell writes about had an incredible impact on the kingdom of God. The martyrdom of Arthur Tylee and Mildred Kratz was the event that most shaped South America (Indian) Mission for two decades after their death and still has an impact on us today. Their story, along with that of the nineteen other "Moody Martyrs" will encourage you to entrust your life to God and allow Him to use you for His glory as He chooses.”
