A Chance to Die: The Life and Legacy of Amy Carmichael by Elisabeth Elliot
A Chance to Die is a vibrant portrayal of Amy Carmichael,
an Irish missionary and writer who spent fifty-three years in south
India without furlough. There she became known as "Amma," or "mother,"
as she founded the Dohnavur Fellowship, a refuge for underprivileged
children.
Amy's life of obedience and courage stands as a model
for all who claim the name of Christ. She was a woman with desires and
dreams, faults and fears, who gave her life unconditionally to serve her
Master.
Bringing Amma to life through inspiring photos and
compelling biographical narrative, Elisabeth Elliot urges readers to
examine the depths of their own commitment to Christ.
