David Brainerd's Personal Testimony

David Brainerd was a missionary to the American Indians from 1743-1747. But he is also remembered for his daily practice of fervent prayer and singleminded yearning for holiness. As Andrew Murray writes, Brainerd's example "rebukes the prayerlessness and lukewarmness of most Christian lives."

This little book chronicles David Brainerd's spiritual journey, his struggles with his faith and work.

Brainerd's life was brief (he died at the age of twentynine) but it was given to God with an intensity and wholeheartedness that few experience. This book is sure to inspire Christians to a greater devotion.
