Book Description

Excerpt from The Chaplain, Vol. 7: A Journal for Protestant Chaplains; January-February, 1950 Those who have had a sense of the need which they can help to meet have had a valid call. He who feels that God wants him to serve Him through this sphere was summoned by the Most High no less certainly than if he had a shattering and dra matic emotional experience. Why did you become a missionary? A friend asked Adoniram Judson. I never thought of that, said Mr. Jud son, and then said, I became a mis sionary because I thought Jesus Christ would be glad to have me become one. He wanted simply to please God, because he loved Him. No other motive will sustain us through the days and years, the trials and crises which will come.
