Adoniram Judson
America’s First Foreign Missionary
Written by Faith Coxe Bailey
and read by Joe Springer.
The fascinating biography of America’s first foreign missionary. From a somber, sedate Congregational parsonage, Judson entered Brown University a God-fearing young man. He graduated valedictorian and a declared atheist. Then he came to the crossroads. A decision was made that led to the miracle of the only room left, the turnabout of a young man going west, the Haystackers, the fight for support, a hijacked ship, lovely Ann Hasseltine, government opposition, delays discouragements, even death.
Each trial proved to be a preparatory step eventually leading Adoniram and Ann Judson to Burma. There they faced the virtually hopeless task of learning Burmese and converting the nationals to an unknown Christ.
Filth and fever, persecution and prison, death and destruction -- these were their obstacles. But a Burmese Bible, dictionary, and grammar were bequeathed to a thriving Burmese church when the "Missionary to Burma" received his final promotion.
