  • Born into a prominent German family, Dietrich Bonhoeffer died in a Nazi prison camp. The son of a physician, Bonhoeffer decided to follow his heart and went into theology. As social conditions worsened in Germany, he traveled abroad, but felt himself drawn back to his native land to resist Adolf Hitler's programs. Ultimately, after much mental struggle, Bonhoeffer became involved in a plan to eliminate Hitler. His resistance efforts led to his arrest by the dreaded Gestapo, and Bonhoeffer was hanged on April 9, 1945, just weeks before the end of the war in Europe.

  • Surely, if Jesus could give everything He had, Amy Carmichael could do no less. So in 1895 she embraced an unusual mission, one that would last the remaining fifty-six years of her life. The Dohnavur Fellowship in India would become, under her loving guidance, a sanctuary for more than one thousand children who would otherwise have faced a frightening future. Amy Carmichael's life was characterized by obedience, total commitment, and selflessness, and serves as an example to Christians today. Those the world regarded as less than lovely, Amy Carmichael saw with the eyes of God-and gave her life for them.
