About Amy Carmichael

Amy Carmichael was raised in Ireland, but she spent most of her life in India serving the Lord. Her brown eyes that she prayed would be taken away proved of use to the Lord. She was never a mother by blood, but was “Amma” to many children that she rescued from temple prostitution. Amy spent the last twenty years of her life bedridden, and she used that time to pen many different books about her relationship with the Lord. Her ministry of the Dohnavur Fellowship, a home for rescued children, still exists today. Her story is beautifully portrayed in A Chance to Die by Elisabeth Elliot.

About Biddy Chambers

Biddy Chambers once aspired to be the secretary for the Prime Minister of England, but the Lord had her be the wife of Oswald Chambers instead. From the start of their marriage, Biddy took shorthand of all of her husband’s lectures and sermons. She also ministered to soldiers during World War I in Egypt during the time that Oswald served as chaplain for the YMCA. After her husband’s death, she began to publish her shorthand that still reaches out to many in the books of Oswald Chambers. To find out more about Biddy, you can find videos on the Discovery of Life YouTube Channel under Oswald Chambers.

About Katie Luther

Katharina (Katie) Bora was born in Hirschfeld, Germany on January 29, 1499. Katie decided to become a nun in 1505. In 1523, after realizing all the errors in the Catholic faith, Katie and many of the nuns in her convent fled in a covered wagon among fish barrels. She married Martin Luther, known as the Father of the Reformation, on June 13, 1525. In addition to bearing their six children, Katharina also managed all their household affairs. Martin and Katharina had a powerful relationship as man and wife, as parents of their own children, and even as guardians of 100’s of students and orphans. Her last words were a great testament to her powerful faith in God: “I shall cling to Christ as a burr clings to a coat.”

About Gladys Aylward

Gladys Aylward was born in London, England in 1902, and left the home she knew far behind her to be a missionary in China. With less than ten dollars to her name, and no mission board to support her, Gladys launched out on her faith in God alone. Ministering to the orphans in China, she struggled to teach them about Jesus Christ and provide the basic things they needed to live while in the midst of the Sino-Japanese War. God delivered and protected her time and time again. Her story is living proof of the power of the Lord Jesus Christ!
