Synopsis

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 God’s 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.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Mary and Jim Higbee live in Northern California. When not on a mission, Jim designs and makes custom furniture, and Mary enjoys writing Sunday School curriculum for her church and being active in prayer ministries. Mary and Jim like the outdoors and take advantage of hiking in the nearby Sierra Nevada Mountains. Two beliefs support their work in Africa: The first is that God invites each of us to share in the work of His mission in the world; and second, human potential is one of the greatest resources in the world and education is one of the ways that people’s potential is realized.
