Stories that Inspire: The Greatest Missionary Generation with Larry Sharp


Listen Later

Do you need a little bit of encouragement today? Tune in as Dave talks with Larry Sharp, author of the book, The Greatest Missionary Generation. You'll hear true stories such as how God used a former sniper in Hitler's army to bring the gospel to an unreached tribe and many more. This episode will inspire you as well as those you're mobilizing to keep pressing on and trusting God for the harvest. Here's what the two discuss:
  1. Why did you choose this title? Is this simply a book on the history of missions?
  2. What motivated many of the missionaries from this generation to go?
  3. Tell us the story of David & Esther Scovill and their impact in Papua.
  4. Your parents were a part of this greatest missionary generation. Tell us about them and their ministry.
  5. You include a chapter in your book titled, "God's Girls." What motivated you to include a chapter highlighting women? 
  6. Your book includes a story about a former sniper in Hitler's army. Who was he and what did God do in his life?
  7. Where do we go from here? What do you hope this book accomplishes?
  8. Do you have any recommended books on future strategies in missions?
