Too Small To Ignore

Since this Sunday is Compassion Sunday, I wanted to put up a few posts about this phenomenal minisitry lead by Wess Stafford. His book was one of the best books I read last year. Too Small To Ignore - Why Children Are the Next Big Thing by Wess Stafford is interesting and his story shook me.

Stafford is the director and CEO of Compassion International. His book tells the story of his life from growing up as a missionary kid in West Africa, being sent away to a boarding school that was a living hell of physical and sexual abuse, to arriving in America as a teenager to grow up and become the leader of one of the most effective and reputable Christian Aid Organizations in the world.

I had no idea that this book was going to be such an incredible read. I'm really surprised I hadn't heard of it before last summer. It's challenged my thinking, maybe made me a little smarter, and even made me cry.

Me.

Cry.

Get the book. See how what Satan did to destroy a young life was used by God to save multitudes.

Maybe God will do the same with your life.
