Product Overview
Have you ever heard God's irresistible call? Mary Higbee did. She soon found herself in rural South Sudan where she faced the challenges of opening a secondary school and connecting with people of another culture. On the other side of the world, amid scarcity and need, the author experienced Gods generosity and a life-affirming purpose and learned about trust, vulnerability, gratitude, perseverance, and non-judgment in profound ways. Lessons from Afar is more than a memoir because the book includes a variety of questions at the end of each chapter which invite the readers to consider how the life lessons learned in Africa can be applied to the circumstances their lives.
