Search - Isobel Kuhn (Women of Faith (Bethany House))

It was the 1920's, and a young lady named Isobel Selina Miller was making her mark in the theater, social and academic world. But through her mother's prayers and after a tragic romance, "Belle" discovered peace with God. As a certified teacher, she was met with the same struggles in her new-found faith that others have faced.

After reading about Hudson Taylor and the China Inland Mission, she felt a call to China and, specifically, to the Lisu people. Preparation at Moody Bible Institute was completed with honors, and eventually she sailed for China as a missionary. There she married John Kuhn whom she had first met during her training at Moody. Together they faced hardships, long separations, severe illness, war, and death itself. Yet through all this the church among the Lisu people grew in faith and the knowledge of Christ.

A challenging and inspiring story which gives new understanding to "pioneer missionary work"!
