Synopsis

A fascinating account of five generations of missional activity and their impact.

Tracing her family history from 1816, Elizabeth Goldsmith provides a fascinating insight into the lives and lasting legacies of five generations involved in missionary activity.

The story takes readers across continents, offering glimpses of North American settlers, Indian brahmins, Chinese mandarins, the beautiful scenery of Norway, a Japanese internment camp and Indonesian villages. It touches on the birth and development of organizations such as the Student Volunteer Movement and the China Inland Mission. It also gives an understanding of the lives of previous generations, their different viewpoints and the ways in which they worked out their faith.

More than a personal history, Roots and Wings explores how we all have our ‘roots’ in our past. But the Holy Spirit gives us ‘wings’ to move beyond our roots so that a family ‘heritage’ can develop from one generation to another.
