Trail Blazers - John & Betty Stam: To Die is Gain
Book Description
- American missionaries to China
- Martyred in 1934
- Includes 'Thinking Further' and Timeline
John and Betty Stam were a young missionary couple sent to China in the 1930s. It was a dangerous time and place to stand for Christ, but John and Betty knew the risks. All they wanted was to spend their lives sharing the good news of Jesus with those who had never heard it.
This is a story of tragedy as well as trust. It is a story of great sacrifice, as well as hope. It is the story of two young martyrs who were willing to pay the ultimate price in their service of Christ.
The Trailblazers series collects great stories from Christians of the past and delivers them to the young people of today. This gripping and astonishing story from Rachel Lane will challenge young readers to trust God as John and Betty Stam did.
