Behind the Ranges: biography of J. O. Fraser of Lisuland, Southwest China


Geraldine Guinness Taylor - 1944
    Fraser"Back cover: "The stories of struggles and victories of missionary pioneers are exciting and interesting. Behind The Ranges is no exception. From James Fraser's days of youthful adventure in England to his glorious home-going while working among his beloved Lisu, his biography throbs with the excitement of God's work in one individual."This magnificent portrayal gives glimpses of his call to missions, the challenge to selflessness, the guiding hand of God, and the change in lives as a result of his ministry. Twenty-six chapters trace this godly missionary's life. Among the many incidents which add to the adventure are a pagan marriage festival among Lisu tribespeople and a 'revolution which made the cities of the Yangtze run with blood.' But outstanding is the account of the remarkable answers to the prayers of the 'Apostle to the Lisu.' Referring to the latter, W. H. Aldis writes, 'The chapter The Prayer of Faith is almost a classic commentary on intercessory prayer.'"Today, decades after the establishing of Christ's church among the Lisu of Southwest China, it can be said that 'by the tens of thousands the Lisu tribespeople of southwest China have responded to the Gospel. This movement of God in villages high on the ridges of the Mekong and Salween canyons is one of the brightest spots in modern missionary annals.'"
