A review by adamrshields
God's Smuggler by Elizabeth Sherrill, Brother Andrew, John Sherrill
3.0
Short Review: this is a classic 20th century missionary story. I first read the comic version of the book in the late 1970s as a child. I am not sure if I have read the full thing before or not. This is worth reading but I read it in tension with The God of the Mundane (http://bookwi.se/god-of-the-mundane/) because I also agree with the concept of that book that most of our lives as Christians deal with the day to day and not the miraculous. The difficulty is holding up not normal examples of Christian faith like this, while trying to value the every day faith of the majority of Christians that will be never known. I did appreciate the focus of this book on trying to serve Christians in more difficult situations than what most of us in the West have to deal with.
