Excerpt from The Church of Christ in Corea
The apostles whose acts are here related are all Coreans; where the white men had failed, the native pastors met with unbounded success. With fine simplicity and tenderness, Mr. Fen wick sketches their characters and tells of their devotion. His record is a clarion call to Chris tian enthusiasm, and a challenge to the apathy of the Western world.
