Don't Ignore This Book!

I really like the format of this book. Stafford's own story of growing up as a missionary kid in Africa in Part One paints a nice backdrop for his passionate call to action in Part Two of the book. His philosophy is both biblically sound and personally motivating. I found myself with tears streaming down my face at more than one point during my reading. I think this book definitely belongs in the hands of every Christian as it provides a great starting place for understanding each person's role in bringing "Compassion in Jesus' name."

Inspirational Eye Opener - rethink children's role in our priveledged society

This book is a wonderful eye opener that guides the reader through a journey of experiences on so many levels. A MUST READ for any and everyone who cares about the future of our society, our world - which is our children. It raises many questions that need our attention BOTH WORLD WIDE AND IN OUR PRIVELEDGED COUNTRY OF THE USA. As a Mother, the book speaks to my heart and covers so many topics I have thought about and struggled with as I am challenged to raise connected loving children in this priveledged distracted media intensive society.

Please read it and change the world one child at a time starting with the children you know. It can be done and the author explains how.

Then buy a copy for everyone you love.

Only for people who can stand the truth

This book is a marvel of leading one up the garden path, at the end of which is an uncaged tiger. The author earned his right to preside over Compassion International. As a former missionary, I have bought a copy for each of my four daughters (all in their mid-to-late forties).

The author's descriptions of at-home-in-Africa, in-hell-in-boarding-school, the unrepentent house parents puts you and me right into the thick of the story and its impact.

The time has come, argues Dr. Wess Stafford, for a major paradigm shift: Children are too important and too intensely loved by God to be left behind or left to chance. Children belong to all of us and we are compelled to intervene on their behalf. We must invest in children?all across the world.
There are strategic, persuasive reasons?beyond love and kindness?to invest in children. Today they may snuggle into your lap, if you let them. But tomorrow you may not have access to them in the corridors of power they might occupy. Now is the time to shape the future.
Dr. Stafford issues an urgent call for change. His adventures as a boy raised in a West African village provide an often-humorous and always-captivating backdrop to his profound and inspiring challenges. Wess lived the reality of ?it takes a village to raise a child? and calls us to ?be that loving village for children everywhere.?
This book will encourage you to turn your good, loving intentions into strategic actions and empower you to help change the world?and the future?forever: one child at a time.
