"During the years we were missionaries in British Central Africa, my husband and I heard many stories of the long, long ago. It was a great pleasure to the old grandfathers and grandmothers to find someone willing to listen to tales of the dark and terrible days before the white men brought both curse and blessing to the native people. "Some would be eager to tell legends and stories of strange ways long forgotten, with the hope that perhaps their stories might be written so that the old days would not be lost forever. Some of the legends are contained herein, just as I have heard them told again and again. "The main story of Kamwendo is as I heard him tell it himself, proud that he was privileged to come early to a Christian mission to learn better ways than the old customs. Of course, some of the old ways are good and should be kept; but others, full of superstition, should be discarded. And they are being laid aside as the people learn better things."-Josephine Cunnington Edwards

Alice Mertie Underhill writes a story of adventure, magic, love and ultimately redemption set in the lonely jungles of India. Big Mo is well-known in his tribe as a great fighter and an alcoholic. A rich, four-cow man, he doesn't feel the need of anything. That is, until the day he attends a burning of a dead mother and her still living child. Feeling pangs of injustice, Big Mo tries to save the infant, but is too late. The witch doctor condemns his actions, and Big Mo begins a journey to find meaning in his life and answers to his questions. During this time he finds Dookie, an abandoned infant about to be devoured by wild dogs. After saving the child, Big Mo attempts to raise the child on his own. As the child grows, she makes friends with another girl who is her own age and who is a Christian. This sparks a feud between himself and the tribal witch doctor who curses Big Mo and Dookie with the "curse of the snake." Ironically, the young child is bitten by a poisonous snake a few months later and becomes deathly ill to the point that a cure seems hopeless. Is the power of the evil spirits stronger than the Christian magic that Big Mo is learning about? Follow the tales of Big Mo and his adoptive daughter, Dookie, in their Indian village as they learn about the Great Spirit from the Christians. A must-read for all ages, Dookie, Sookie, and Big Mo will make you laugh and cry, and bring you closer to the Christian God they are learning to love, Jesus Christ.

Few people escape dark days or mind-boggling distress. Fewer yet are prepared when crushing blows leave them staggering with grief and pain. Knowing God's tried and proven mind-science principles will mean the difference between developing a growing positive experience rather than a trip into debilitating depression. Some might classify When You Walk a Dark Valley as a "self-help" book. It is more than that; it is how to turn disaster, overwhelming grief and paint into "wells of water" springing up like artesian springs for exuberant, thriving in Christ. It is turning bitter experiences produced even by supposed dear friends and loved ones, into victorious Christian living beyond your wildest expectations. It is taking every negative of life and finding incredible joy in Jesus and growth in His grace to become what He intended you to be. It is realizing that the way God has led was right for you and was really from His hand. Beyond all this, it will make the reader an instrument in God's hands to win the very souls who sought to wound him, making him the carrier and administrator of God's ultimate agape love. Realizing more of His selfless love, you will know more of His grace to not merely survive unbearable pain, but then to thrive in His more abundant life. You will find His peace in trusting Him with every inch of your innermost soul. If you personally take these few brief lessons to heart, you will never be the same again. This will be your reward for reading, When You Walk a Dark Valley!
