| 30 Stories from Taiwan's Working Class - Prayer Guide |
| Dispite its modern, high-tech cities and a veneer of Western influence, Taiwan is a deeply traditional society. Its people are steeped in idol worship, live in fear of the spirit world and are highly superstitious. The gospel has made little impact in their world. This is particularly true of the working-class majority of whom less than 0.5 percent know Jesus Christ as Lord.
This guide will introduce you to the stories of working-class Taiwanese people, their struggles and fears. It will help you to know how to pray for them so that the light of the gospel will break forth into the darkness of their lives.

| A Secret Hope |
| Neighboring villages considered the remote village of Taguangu Philippines trash. Its reputation was well-deserved. Taguangu was little more than a den of loafers brawlers drunkards gamblers and thieves.
Desperate for change three Manobo believers asked God to send a missionary to Taguangu. At that very time God called Ria Zebua from the tiny island of Nias in Indonesia to take the gospel of salvation to the Manobo people. But to which village should Ria go?
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.

| Ascent To the Tribes |
| Day was breaking on the far Thailand hills. A sense of something new coming had been scattered over the mountaintops. A new name was heard on the lips of tribe after tribe. Some wistfully wondered if He had power to dispel the darkness of their bondage to demons. Others whispered His name in secret fearing the consequences of open confession, but there were a few groups who would own Him as Savior and worship Him as the Son of God.

| Born For Battle |
| by R. Arthur Mathews
edited by M.E. Tewksbury
Dr. Neil Anderson of Freedom in Christ Ministries writes in his foreword:
"There was a time I thought I could explain the world through the grid of my Western rational and natural world view. When I turned to Christ for my own salvation, I was taught how to explain the failure of humanity by the nature of the fallen world and the ongoing struggle with the flesh. I learned about the kingdom of God but was taught little about the kingdom of darkness. Then someone put Arthur Mathew's book 'Born for Battle' in my hands and I began to understand the nature of the spiritual battle that believers are called to engage in. `Born for Battle` is one of those Christian classics that needs to be read again and again by every generation. I trust it will do as much for you as it has done for me."

| Buddhism: Through Christian Eyes |
| By Alex Smith
The recent growth and renewal of Buddhism, especially in the West, is a phenomenon of the last half century and is likely to increase into the 21st century. The interlacing of Buddhism and Christianity seems to be a growing fashion at the folk religion level.
The clouding of differences between Buddhism and Christianity can only be clarified as we clearly understand the principles and precepts foundational to both. So many think that these two great religious systems are quite similar. Actually they are extremely different at many points.
This book is needed today. It will help Christians and Buddhists alike understand each other better. Many Christians are largely ignorant of Buddhism and many Buddhists know little of fundamental Christian foundations. There are many varieties of both groups. This complicates simplicity of explanation.
Section 1 analyzes contemporary folk Buddhism, its growths and contrasts. Section 2 focuses on principles for effective communication in local cultures.

| By Searching |
| Isobel Miller gave up God for worldly pursuits. But as graduation approached and her engagement was broken, she questioned that decision. "If You will prove to me that You are, and if You will give me peace, I will give You my whole life." God heard Isobel's prayers and responded. Her search ended, and He gave her a whole new life of fruitful missionary service in China.

| China: The Reluctant Exodus |
| by Phyllis Thompson
edited by M.E. Tewksbury
The five years that followed World War II were the most significant in the history of modern missions. They saw the door close on nearly one quarter of the world's population as China, the world's largest mission field, came under communist domination.
Mission work had often been dangerous in China, but for over a century Western misssionaries had freely entered China to preach all across its vast regions. But by the end of 1950 all that had changed. Most Protestant missions had already withdrawn. Now the largest mission in the world, the China Inland Mission, realized that open Christian witness in China had become impossible.
But did the decision come to late? This book tells the inspiring story of their exodus from China.

| China's Christian Millions |
| by Tony Lambert
Churches are growing all over China. Under Mao, Christianity virtually disappeared from sight, but was never stamped out. Now we are seeing what is probably the biggest revival in world history. Statistics from the Communist Party itself show exponential church growth. The author suggests reasons, and outlines sobering truths that Western Christians need to hear. His book is full of gripping accounts of courage, vision and faith. Includes a province-by-province guide, maps, photographs and a timeline.

| Dead Women Walking |
| By Jennifer Su.
What frightened Mei most was that when her husband, Han, was angry, he exercised no restraint. With one hand, he would hold her hands behind her back and with the other, he would pound her, punching ruthlessly.
One day Han took Mei to a bar. ‘Stay and work here today. I’ll come back later and get you,’ he said. Mei worked as usual, serving drinks, but when one customer wanted more, she went straight to her manager. She hadn’t agreed to anything like that. But the manager was unrelenting. ‘You must do it!’ he ordered.
Fuming, Mei went to the phone and called her husband. His words were unbelievable. ‘Just stay there, and do what they tell you,’ said the man on the other end of the line. The man who, for a hefty sum, had sold his own wife into prostitution.
Mei, like many of Taiwan’s working class, was entangled in abuse, addiction and idol worship. Her life seemed hopeless, with no way out. Could anyone save her?
As Mei lay in bed, a cool breeze swept over her. There was no window or fan, but by now she was used to such strange occurrences. The breeze blew into her and she started to tremble.
‘ Go to the top of the house.’
At the sound of the voice, the spirits that usually surrounded Mei scattered. She shuffled to the roof.
‘Hold out your hands.’
Mei extended her arms, her body forming the shape of a cross. Two beams of light came down and touched her hands.
‘I am huo shen, the fire God,’ Mei thought she heard. Years would pass before she realised what had really been said – the difference lying in two typically insignificant Chinese characters -‘I am huo zhe de shen, the living God.’
