Description
SIMONETTA CARR
Simonetta Carr’s newest children’s biography introduces us to a father of the Chinese evangelical church, Pastor Wang Mingdao. Mingdao is remembered for standing firm for the true gospel, even though it cost him his earthly freedom. Even after a moment of weakness during persecution, Mingdao found restoration in Christ and kept the faith through twenty-three years of imprisonment. His courage and strength provide a modern example of how Christians can trust the Lord and remain faithful in times of hardship and persecution. This title is part of the Christian Biographies for Young Readers series.

Endorsements
“Simonetta Carr’s wonderfully written and illustrated biography of Wang Mingdao will introduce children and their parents to this twentieth-century hero of the faith and the God he loved more than life itself. It will also open a window into the joys and sufferings of Christians in China through occupations, revolutions, and persecutions and deepen the reader’s appreciation for how God is working all things together for the salvation of His people.”
—Bruce P. Baugus, editor of China’s Reforming Churches: Mission, Polity, and Ministry in the Next Christendom
