About this listen

C T.’S LIFE stands as some rugged Gibraltar — a sign to all succeeding generations that it is worthwhile to lose all this world can offer and stake everything on the world to come. His life will be an eternal rebuke to easy-going Christianity. He has demonstrated what it means to follow Christ without counting the cost and without looking back. His simple life alone has affected missionary history, and through it C. T. forwarded evangelization to an extent that we cannot properly gauge.

This book shares his direct work and influence that he exerted and, in ever-widening circles around the world. He probably accomplished more than we can ever know. He impersonated the heroic spirit, the apostolic abandon, which it is easy to lose for the work of Christ.

A cavalry leader cannot have all the gifts of an administrator, or he would not have the qualities necessary to lead a charge. But these are only as Froude wrote of Carlyle, ‘'the mists that hang about a mountain." Men who want no mists must be content with plains. But give me the mountain! It will be but a little while, and, the mists evaporated, the mountain will stand out in all its grandeur.

I myself owe an enormous debt to him. From him I learned that God’s ideal of a saint is not a man primarily concerned with his own sanctification: God’s saint is fifty percent, a soldier. So we and thousands more will continue to thank God for the soldier life he lived and the soldier death he died. A little time ago I sent him these lines, and how wonderfully they are fulfilled in his case: Let the victors when they come. When the forts of folly fall, Find thy body near the wall. Now it is for us to try and emulate him. That is the epitaph he would value most.
