Missionaries' Letters to Mothers
Body
SI member Barbara Harper has compiled several letters from Jim Eliot, Hudson Taylor, and Amy Carmichael to their mothers here.
As iron sharpens iron,
one person sharpens another. (Proverbs 27:17)
Moving from Michigan to South Carolina demanded adjustments on many levels for me. Kroger and Farmer Jack were replaced with Bi-Lo and Publix. City names like Troy and Sterling Heights gave way to towns like Pickens and Pumpkintown. When people asked, “How are you?” they actually expected an answer. And it took me quite some time to figure out why these South Carolinians kept talking about USC and the Tigers.
