African Voices
compiled by Mark and Nancy Pitts
 
After living almost 25 years in the northwestern United States, Mark and Nancy Pitts heard God’s call to serve Him in Africa. But this book isn’t about their story; it’s about the many stories they have heard as they shared meals together with African students, university faculty, pastors, district superintendents, school leaders, and many others.
 
Become acquainted with some of the current and future Nazarene leaders from Africa. They are people full of passion and integrity, courage and persistence. And they are your brothers and sisters in Christ.
 
 
Contagious Compassion:
The Life and Ministry of Tom Nees**
by Neil B. Wiseman
 
After many years of successful ministry in various locations around the United States, Tom Nees—pastor, father, and third-generation Nazarene—began grappling with how the Church could better help those plagued by despair and hungry for hope. In response, Tom obeyed God’s call to the city where he embarked on a ministry of compassion at the Community of Hope in Washington, D.C.
 
Read about Tom and the many people whose lives he touched. Then ponder anew how compassion truly is the action side of holiness.
 
 
Extreme Argentina
by Pat Stockett Johnston
 
Several people who journeyed to Argentina as part of the Extreme Nazarene project told their inspiring stories. From helping to build the Bruno Radi Convention Center to ministry in a women’s prison, park puppet shows, plaza evangelism, and film showings, each participant returned home a changed person.
 
The journey doesn’t stop there, however. Perhaps God is calling you to join the next Extreme Nazarene project as He seeks willing souls to draw lost people to Him.

First a Flicker, Then a Blaze:
Nazarene Missions in India
by Richard Gammill
 
Across the centuries many have sought to extinguish the torch of Christian faith the Apostle Thomas brought to India, but the brightness of its flame remains undimmed in many Nazarenes who valiantly serve their Master.
 
Open the pages to their stories . . . stories of faith, of courage, and of conviction. Then thank God for the more than one hundred years of ministry the Church of the Nazarene has seen in this vast and mysterious land—the land of India.

Cold Winds, Warm Hearts:
The Church of the Nazarene in Bulgaria**
by Teanna Sunberg

Author and missionary Teanna Sunberg will take you on an exciting and spellbinding journey of the growth of the Church of the Nazarene in Bulgaria. Your heart will be warmed as you discover how God honored those who remained faithful to Him even in the midst of severe opposition.

The Tower of Babel Was a Bad Idea:
The Joy and Agony of Second-language Learning**
by Amy Crofford
 
The process of learning another language is long and hard, and missionaries often become discouraged. After an exceptionally difficult day at language school, one new missionary quipped: “Whoever thought of the Tower of Babel should have been shot on the spot!”
 
Between the pages of this book lie heartfelt and humble stories of people who have obeyed the call of God to journey to a new land and minister in a new language. May their words—and their obedience—inspire and encourage your heart.
