A Secret Hope tells how God directed her and a team of Filipino missionaries to the Manobo of Taguangu - that lair of crooks and ruffians. There they saw God do the impossible again and again.

"Has anyone ever told you about the prophecy handed down from our fathers?" Suklinyan asked.

"Our fathers told us that white teachers would come into our area and we were to listen and obey their teaching, and we would be able to recognize them because they would know our language."

A strange thrill went down my spine. I turned toward Russell and we looked at each other, speechless. We knew of no other outsider who could speak Tawbuid.

Leaving home and family, enduring separation from their children for long periods, Russell and Barbara Reed dedicated their entire lives to bringing the gospel to the Tawbuid in the Philippines. Buoyed by the prayers of partners back in the United States, reinforcement workers on the field and God’s powerful presence, they persevered to reach the goal.

How might God use you in creating another breakthrough among those who have yet to hear?

Nests Above the Abyss is a classic about the work of the Holy Spirit in transforming lives characterized by fear, sin and darkness into beauty, joy and the hope of the resurrection.
