Book Description

The God’s Generals series of books are some of the most important books in my library. I consider them to be required reading for our people. This volume on The Missionaries will no doubt inspire a wave of new sold-out lovers of God to invade the nations of the world, ready to pay any price to spread this wonderful gospel of the kingdom. God’s Generals carries such profound importance because it provides us with perspective, it creates an awareness of a God-inspired momentum, and it ignites a hunger for what might be possible again in our lifetimes. Author Roberts Liardon does an amazing job of recalibrating our need for true heroes, while, at the same time, addressing weaknesses, shortcomings, and even failures of these great missionary leaders. He does this all without slander or even downgrading the importance of their roles in history. I love this transparent approach, and I highly recommend this volume for all who consider themselves disciples of Jesus Christ. —Bill Johnson Bethel Church, Redding, California Author, When Heaven Invades Earth and Hosting the Presence Roberts Liardon has written an extremely well-researched book, God’s Generals: The Missionaries.

As a skilled storyteller, Roberts weaves factual accounts with everyday struggles, heartaches, and victories. Our great pioneers of faith had two common threads: lives bathed in much prayer, and guidance by the Holy Spirit. God’s Generals will show you how to lay down your life and consider everything a loss compared to knowing Jesus. This is a book I will put in my library. —Heidi G. Baker, Ph.D. Cofounder and Director, Iris Global As one of the modern-day historians in the body of Christ, Roberts Liardon has brought forth another great jewel in his God’s Generals series. Some of my mentors over the years have been books. The lives portrayed in this classic book on pioneering missionaries will surely join my “Hall of Heroes.” The shadow of these humble and sacrificial lives in Christ is being cast once again upon the lives of many people because of this amazing author. Thank you, Roberts, for being faithful to your task! —James W. Goll Founder, Encounters Network and Prayer Storm Author, The Seer, A Radical Faith, and The Coming Israel Awakening Roberts Liardon has done an exceptional job compiling the life and testimonies of these mighty missionaries for God, who burned with a deep desire to reach the .
