Book Description
What was it like for a young Christian girl to grow up in Pakistan? THE DESPICABLE MISSIONARY is a true story that traces the life of Victoria from birth to a young adult, as she leans to defend her faith, and love Muslims. Follow her though turbulent political times from Partition, through military dictatorship and the Muslim revolution in Pakistan. Learn what she learned about forgiveness and love for the man she was engaged to as a child, who abandoned her, and years later returned to ask her to marry him. Then, as immigrants in the United States, live with her through the tragedy of 9-11, the stereotyping by Americans of immigrants from Pakistan, and the time when she finds her voice, telling of the love God has for all people, even enemies. THE DESPICABLE MISSIONARY is a testimony by someone who chose to live in Jesus' Way, a life that brought peace and comfort to those who suffer.

Missionaries, Rebellion and Proto-Nationalism
Author: Geoffrey A. Oddie
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136809899
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
The Rev. James Long was one of the most remarkable Protestant missionaries working in India in the nineteenth century. Sent to Calcutta at the age of 22 in 1840, he devoted his life to representing what he passionately believed were the best interests of the forgotten poor and oppressed among the Bengali population. Long was a central figure in the indigo planting controversy of 1861 and suffered imprisonment as a result. His memory is revered even today in modern India, where his contribution to the development of Bengali vernacular education, literature, history, and sociology is highly regarded. Dr Oddie has produced the first full-length biography of Rev Long, examining his work and activities in the context of his own background, philosophy and motivation as well as the political and cultural climate of the day. This book will add significantly to our knowledge of social movements in nineteenth century India and the colonial responses to them.
