A few weeks ago, a lady at our church who is fellow book-lover, loaned me a missionary story called To the Golden Shore. “I think you’ll like it,” she said, and she was right. I wanted to share it with you, and encourage you to read this wonderful book about Adoniram Judson. I must say …
In the autumn of last year, a man in our church loaned me a copy of this book by A. W. Pink. I don’t think he meant for me to keep it six months, but I have. It has taken me that long to read this short, 117 page book. The reason? I am not …

The book begins with narration from “death”. That’s right, death tells us the story of Liesel Meminger, Â the book thief. “Death” likes to use colors to describe much of what he sees.
