WOMEN OF GRACE AND GUTS: THE UNLIKELY HEROES OF THE LADIES' ZENANA AUXILIARY SERVING THE LORD IN INDIA (HISTORY TODAY SERIES)

The title of this book tells the story. Winifred Booth, Ruth Morling and Olive Elliott had all experienced the grace of God themselves, had been refined by that grace, and then were moved to speak to the women of India of the grace of God in the gift of Jesus. They were also women of guts, who around a hundred years ago had the courage to leave all that was familiar to them and to travel thousands of miles by sea to a place of which they knew little. There, while contending with the harsh climate and new illnesses, they committed to learning Tamil, one of the most complex of languages. They were motivated by a love for the
women of India who were living under the dark and heavy rule of religion and the Zenana culture, whose lives were hard and who had no hope. These women of grace and guts sought to take to them the true hope found only in Jesus.
