About this listen

This is the powerful story of Gladys Aylward. Without formal education or a missionary organization to back her, Gladys raised her own finances for the overland trip that would bring her to the country and people that God had etched so deeply on her heart.... China!

What follows is an amazing adventure of faith and determination. Gladys Aylward, a housemaid from England, dared to trust God in the face of dire and seemingly hopeless circumstances. Her amazing adventure of faith and determination is one of the truly great missionary stories of our era (1902-1970).

My children aged 6&8 primarily listened to this book with my supervision. There was one or two instances where I had to forward, but overall the book was fascinating and inspiring and riveting to my children. They have asked that we buy all of these missionary biographies!

Amazing story that inspires even children under 10
