- Lottie Moon: The Girl Who Reached the World by Amy Whitfield
- “We’ve always been open to if the Lord would send us overseas, we would go, but for now He’s called us to point people here [...] to the other side of the world.”
- “I think it’s imperative for us to know the stories of the past, particularly those who have gone on before us in the church, to get the context, the history that we have come from.”
- “It matters to know the story of how the Gospel has spread to places around the world.”
- “She had one idea, and now missionaries all over the world are supported because of it still.”
- “Reading missionary biographies or reading missionary journals helps people to see, to understand the need, but then also to see how the Holy Spirit is working in these places.”
- “It’s important in our churches that we are educating our kids about the Bible, about the doctrines of the faith, and about the call to go and make disciples.”
- “A lot of times, I think people don’t understand the role that we all play in the Great Commission, even in sending.”
- “God woke her up to know Him, and she didn’t rest until she told the world His story. Through the simple acts of baking cookies and writing letters and quite a bit of feisty determination, Lottie’s dream of reaching the world for Jesus came true.”
- “I really think it begins with opening your eyes and saying, ‘What’s one thing I can do this week, and what’s one thing I can do next week?’”
- “We are called to be the church out there – every day, everywhere we are.”
