About this book
The task of getting the Gospel to every ethnic person is tremendous. There is but one solution. I'm sure that it isn't man, money, surveys, or talk. They all have their place, but if the basis isn't fervent, believing prayer, they are all in vain. Bringing prayer to the task, Cameron Townsend founded one of the world's largest mission organizations., Wycliffe Bible Translators, and its training arm, the Summer Institute of Linguistics. Townsend's singleness of vision has brought translation work, literacy, and assistance to over 850 minority language groups in close to 50 nations. Based on extensive letters, diaries, and public writings, this new biography chronicles Townsend's life, examining the grassroots work which led to the founding of a great ministry. For anyone interested in missions, history, or linguistics, Wycliffe in the Making is a clear, insightful, and faithful account of the gospel's call on one man's life.
