📕 Книга "A Foreign Devil in China 钟爱华传".In 1915, a promising young baseball player from Waynesboro, Va. traded in the prospect of a major league career for a life of medical missions in China. The soon-to-be doctor, Lemuel Nelson Bell (July 30, 1894 - August 2, 1973), felt the urgency of God's call and embarked on a 25-year adventure among foreigner-fearing Chinese peasants, bandits, and nobility. His selfless work and compassion quickly moved him from yang gui-zi ("foreign devil") to Zhong Ai Hua ("the Bell who is lover of the Chinese people") in the eyes of those he served.The remarkable story of Ruth Bell Graham's father will grip your heart and inspire trust in the God who is always faithful to those who trust in Him. Discover how this humble servant inspired and blessed so many - including his son-in-law, evangelist Billy Graham - through his wisdom and courageous faith.国外宣教士在中国的经历、对中国的贡献,一直是段尘封的历史,以致我们多数人想起他们来,都只有抽象空洞的印象。然而实际上,他们怀着对基督和中国的爱远离家园,许多人在这片大地上奉献了自己的一生。宣讲福音、创办学校、建立医院、照顾孤苦,这些事若没有人传说,后人永远不会知道。钟爱华医生从无到有,在中国的清江浦建起当时世界上最大的长老会医院,从医院的行政工作到手术台上的一次次抢救,他无不亲身参与;内有人才、器材短缺之患,外逢战火、土匪肆虐之忧。因着对神的爱的无限信赖,靠着宣教士和祷告小组的同心祈求,他们一一度过。他对传福音也始终怀有巨大热情,抓紧一切机会向病人宣传那位能救人灵魂的主,凭着他的信心、威望和使人亲近的个性,许多中国人领受了福音。他去监狱讲道,亲眼看见基督是怎样为自己预备了许多饥渴的心灵。此外还有许多与他同工的人,他们一同劳苦,却没有来得及看见劳苦的果效。我们或许会以为,宣教生活必定只有苦楚艰难,宣教士们必然成天板着脸,因为自己做的是大事。可钟爱华让我们看到,平安和喜乐能穿透战火,在主里面任何事既是小事也是大事。他生性开朗幽默,善开玩笑,深得当地人和病人们的喜爱。他和妻子一道让自己的家成为当地最舒服的待客之家。他们的儿女在艰难的环境下度过了健康快乐的童年。钟爱华的生命使人大开眼界,感叹主恩之丰富。宣教士的故事,是与当地人民一起写就的故事,是关于爱的...
