We often think of William Carey as the father of modern Protestant missions, but did you know that many Protestants went to preach the gospel to foreign lands from the time of the Reformation? Join Emma, Christian, and Sean as they discover the exciting travels of French and Dutch Protestant missionaries in the 16th and 17th centuries. Thankfully, they have  Dr. Zach Purvis, professor of Church History and Theology at Edinburgh Theological Seminary, the author of several articles on this subject, to guide them.
