Through Her Eyes Perspectives
on Life from Christian Women Serving in the Muslim World Marti
Smith Authentic
Media, 2004, 249 pp., ISBN 1-932805-07-9 |
Marti Smith served as a research project
coordinator for the ministry of Caleb Project, now Caleb Resources. She helps train and send short-term teams
to do ethnographic research to support church planting among those beyond the
reach of the Gospel. She began research
for this book while living with a church-planting team in Central Asia. Via interviews of two dozen women, the book give
real-life insight into some of the struggles and adjustments for women living
and ministering in another part of the world.
Issues related to perseverance, relationships, life under pressure,
culture, values, money, singleness, marriage, and parenting make up some of
the topic areas. This would be an excellent book for any woman
considering or preparing for life in ministry elsewhere in the world. |
