Many amazing stories of international missions were written in the past. Stories that compelled us to follow God with great passion and faith have stirred our hearts over the decades.

We witness heart-stirring, real-life drama that is our daily reality of God breaking the strongholds of darkness and opening doors of resistance to His amazing gospel message here in the highlands of Papua New Guinea.

The Plasma Pioneer reveals the remarkable true story of Charles Richard Drew, the African American physician whose scientific genius collided with the brutal realities of segregated America.

In Return to Joy, Dr. Keith Kahle offers a raw, deeply personal exploration of the long-term effects of “father-wounding”—a form of trauma rooted in unmet emotional needs, silence, or absence from a paternal figure. Drawing from his own life experiences, Kahle examines how these wounds manifest throughout adulthood in relationships, physical and emotional health, and personal identity. With a blend of memoir, medical insight, and compassionate storytelling, he shows how seemingly minor childhood messages can create lifelong patterns of shame, reactivity, and self-doubt.

BLACK MAN CAN’T DO is a bold, unfiltered journey into the life of a Black man navigating the raw, demanding world of heavy equipment operations—an industry built on muscle, precision, and an unspoken racial divide. James A Rietz exposes the truth behind the construction fences, where bulldozers, cranes, and excavators roar—and so do centuries-old stereotypes. As the only Black face on many job sites, James didn’t just learn how to move earth—he learned how to move mountains of doubt, prejudice, and exclusion.

Since the 1970s, the science of primatology has been dominated by women—a unique reversal, as men usually outnumber women in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. Today, one of those women is primatologist Keriann McGoogan, who has traveled to the far corners of the earth in search of wild primates. In Sisters of the Jungle, McGoogan combines stories about her own studies of howler monkeys (the loudest living primate) and lemurs (the most endangered group of animals on the planet) with those of the women who paved the way.
