We have received a new missionary book called "Venturing With God in Congo" by Darrell Champlin and published by Conjurske Publications. Darrell Champlin is a pastor and wrote this book as a recollection of memories from when he and his wife were doing missions in the Congo. The timeline is early 2000's.
The book is a sturdy binded hardback book with 304 pages, there's a few glossy pages that serve as a collection of photos in the center of the book. The size is roughly 9x6. The cover is beautifully designed and very intriguing with vibrant green shrubery, a snake, an elephant and mysterious eyes! I assigned the book to Karter, my 10 year old son to read.

It was a little tough for him to get interested in the beginning but around the middle of the book action picked up and sucked him right in. The climax of the story was a bit dramatic and graphic. It involved people being killed and tortured but the end result was the missionaries won and the rebels retreated.
Take aways Karter got from this book are:
