William Carey

A long read – but readers will never regret it. Dr John MacArthur calls this the best book he has ever read. It is a beautifully produced biography of the ‘father of modern missions’. Compelling pages convey the very atmosphere of an extraordinary time of missionary advance. Carey and his colleagues overcame mountainous obstacles to become the most productive church planters and Bible translators of all time. This story will stir the hearts of young and old alike.

William Carey is in the Read for the Lord scheme on the Start-Up List.

S. Pearce Carey was a distinguished Baptist minister and missionary statesman of the first half of the twentieth century, but he became famous in the Christian world as a writer.
