Why you should read this book: The Christian publishing world doesn't sell near the percentage of mission books as other kinds of books. Though disappointing, it's not that surprising, as the mission field often seems far from our own experience. However, God's heart is to build His church continually, and in all places.Richardson goes to those who have no gospel witness at all. He chronicles not only his trials but his amazing success --which came about in the oddest of ways. Great violence threatened to overtake the people he was working with. I won't say more, for to do so would be to spoil a great climax.I didn't give this 5 stars because I felt the book moved rather slowly until the end. It is readable, but it would not be honest to call it a page-turner.One caution after this. Richardson hints (and later writes a book stating explicitly) that every unreached culture has a "redemptive analogy" already built into it. The missionary task then, involves finding this redemptive analogy and using it to unlock the people's hearts. Although that seems to be the case in Peace Child, it is a stretch to say that God a)has provided a redemptive analogy in every culture and b)one must find it in order to maximize the power of the gospel message. The gospel is powerful by itself. One not need be anthropologist, nor an insightful sociologist, nor a brilliant detective, nor even a spiritually discerning half-wit to bring the Gospel in power. "Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God." Mission work is good work and real work. If unique ways of illustrating the gospel are available, we must, by all means use them. But to expect that we must find a specific redemptive analogy within every culture in order to unlock their hearts for the gospel (or that God has planted one knowing that in the future a missionary would come and find it) --this is conjecture."I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation." You need not be a brilliant missiologist adept and discerning redemptive illustrations from culture to successfully plant a church among the unreached.
A very engrossing book, and a quick, light read- I finished it in basically one day. I loved how Richardson made his characters- real people- come to life in his description of the Sawi before the coming of Europeans and Canadians. Telling the first third of the book in second person Sawi-perspective is an effective literary device that allows us to really understand such a foreign culture from en emic (insider) perspective. The contrast of the two cultures is also engaging- I found myself often laughing as the Don and the Sawi tried to understand each other.I would have liked some way to track the different characters of the story, as there are so many they often get confusing. And it would have been nice to hear more of the mission work of Don's wife, Carol, as she was doing a lot, but you hear little of her story, or the story of the Sawi women from their perspective- something that would naturally need to happen from Carol's engagement with the Sawi. But it was exciting to hear these redemption analogies enfleshed, and to see ways that God's words can be brought to a people from within their own understanding, just as He came to the Hebrews, Hellenistic society, and the barbarian European tribes of my ancestors. I finished wanting the stories of Sawi life to continue.
A very thorough and exciting book by missionary, Don Richardson, as he struggled to explain God sending His son to make peace for us.......After reading this book I recommend getting the disc, Peace Child, which will give you the video of actual happenings....reenacted by the natives of New Guinea and the Richardson couple. Amazing!
WOW! This has all the elements of a thriller. What courage these missionaries had to face! What a wonderful Lord we have.
Usually I run from any faith based books as usually the authors use it to spout their personal beliefs but this book stuck to the facts and made no effort to convert anyone. Just the story which has healed my damaged faith in the church. Apparently there really are good God fearing people whom are doing very good humanitarian work. I have never read a better missionary story than this. Made me cry it was so beautiful. Now I want to be a missionary. Bless all people like this author who has done a great service to humanity!
This is a real life account of a U.S. missionary working in an area of very primitive Indonesian tribes whose identity was bound in tribal fighting. The missionary was baffled at how to break through to the tribes and get them to cease the fighting and killing. How this eventually came about is the story of the peace child and the story of God's involvement through His crucified and resurrected Son, Jesus Christ. This is a fascinating, fast moving, and thrilling story.
Well written and wonderful insight into this primitive people. Certainly not a fictional book in any sense. The profound effect of true Christianity made on them is amazing. Parts of the book are not for the weak of heart. The redemptive analogies are worth the book.
