Gladys Aylward: Missionary to China
God was leading her to China, and no man would stop her.
After reading a magazine article about China, Gladys Aylward couldn't put the idea out of her mind. But when the China Inland Mission rejected her as a missionary, Aylward found her own way there in 1932, trusting God with every step.
Her simple dependence on God would be a recurring theme during her amazing tenure in China, a mission which lasted, with one ten-year interruption during the Communist takeover, until her death in 1970. Enduring threats on her life and the perils of war and disease. Aylward lived an adventure for Jesus Christ that is one of the great missionary stories of the twentieth century.
Like Corrie ten Boom, Gladys Aylward praised God that, in her own words, "one so insignificant, uneducated, and ordinary in every way could be used to His glory for the blessing of his people in poor persecuted China."
