books

I have a selfish request. I would like to have books about Jonathan Goforth and books for learning the Madarin language.

I have read "Jonathan Goforth: An Open Door in China" by Janet and Geoff Benge so any other books by or about him would be appreciated.

Any language books will be greatly appreciated.

I know this is a selfish request, but if you do send them please mail to:
Eton House International School
LaRee Croy
Dongguan Dynatown, Dongcheng Dong Road

I'll leave you with some quotes from the book.

Jonathan then preached from the story of the loaves and the fishes.

The story tells of how more than five thousand people followed J-sus to hear Him teach. As night approached, the disciples wanted to send the crowd away because they had nothing to feed them. Just then a young boy came forward with five loaves of bread and two fish. J-sus blessed the food, broke it into pieces, and told the disciples to distribute it to the crowd. Everyone had enough to eat, and afterwards there were twelve basketfuls of leftovers.
When Jonathan had finished retelling the story, he said, “Now, let’s imagine for a moment that the disciples fed the first two rows of people. When they were done, instead of moving on to feed the back rows, they went to the front and fed the first two rows a second and then a third time. After a while, people in the first two rows were so full they turned away when food was offered to them. All the while, people in the back two rows were fainting from hunger.”
Jonathan paused for a moment to let the congregation think about what he had said. “My friends, aren’t we doing the same thing when we put most of our time and money into giving the Bread of Life to those who have heard it so often while millions of people in China are starving for the g-spel message?”

Jonathan also said "The G-d of Hudson Taylor is ours."

The G-d of Paul, David, Timothy, John the Baptist, Moses, Noah, Joseph, Elijah, Ezekiel, Isaiah, John, Job, Mary, Abraham, Ruth, Mary Magdelene, Oswald Chambers, C.S. Lewis, etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., is yours as well. Take heart in that. It is the Almighty we serve.
