Book Description

Myanmar Gold introduces you to the incredible indigenous church leader, Naing Thang, through the first-hand account of an American experiencing, for the first time, a dangerous third-world country and a large field of persecuted Christian brothers and sisters in deep poverty. The story-teller, an award-winning journalist who is now a thirty-two-year veteran pastor, has lived a life just about as interesting as the stories he has discovered. The eye-opening experiences and observations he relays in this account have a unique way of giving the reader the feeling that they are on their own mission trip of sorts as he shares his doubts, fears, and surprises, as well as inspiration drawn from the people he meets and the things they tell him about their lives. Having been in the news business years earlier, he applies his skills of investigation and interview during several more trips to Myanmar over a five-year period, digging out verifiable narratives to bring back home and to the presses for his first book. During this deep-dive investigation of a lifetime, the author travels where few foreigners have ever been, to remote jungle villages and ancient Asian cities, to the places where the stories happened. What he discovers there is even more wonderful than he had imagined. Be prepared to find some treasures of your own and have your heart and mind changed forever. Buckle up for an adventure and prepare to discover some Myanmar Gold.
