In this inspirational memoir of one schoolteacher's bold choice to let go and let God, you'll find that with faith, miracles become commonplace, and ordinary people can change the world in extraordinary ways.
Esther Bennett was raised in the church and became a believer at thirteen. She attended a Christian college, was a fixture at prayer meetings, and fervently asked God to send her to preach the Gospel to many nations.
So at forty, why was she still stateside, working as a schoolteacher in the public school system? Something was missing. She felt that the God of the Bible-the God of miracles-had called her to something more.
Take baby steps and then giant leaps of faith with Esther as she resigns from a good job and forgoes a steady income and the comforts of home to travel around the globe, led only by the still, small voice of God in her ear. You'll read of her successes, her failures, her adventures, and her misadventures as she finally lives her purpose as a speaker and encourager of missionaries and leaders around the world, relying solely on God as her refuge and strength, her ever-present help in times of trouble.
About the Author: Armed with a bachelor's degree in physical education and a background in both art and the Bible, Esther Bennett was a schoolteacher until, at age forty, she decided to answer God's call to the mission field. Stepping out in faith, she has trusted God alone to provide the necessary financial resources and direction for her life since the 1970s. God has taken her to thirty countries, from Asia to Africa to Europe to North and Central America.
Bennett lives in Meridian, Idaho, with her longtime ministry partner and coauthor, Sharon Pryor.
