Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"In Japan the Crickets Cry" is a fascinating missionary biography that provides inspiration for the need and power of forgiveness. The book follows the remarkable story of Steve Metcalf, who suffered as a victim of a terrifying regime conducted by Japanese guards. Once the Second World War had finished, the China Inland Mission began a search for young men who were open to moving to Japan. Steve finished training and initiated his lifelong love of Japan. During the early years in Japan, Steve encountered difficulties with the country's culture: one where suicide was considered honorable and to be foreign was to be forever alien. With God's supervision and support, Steve managed to bring many people to Christ amongst a very resistant culture. "In Japan the Crickets Cry" showcases the miracles that Steve encountered during his amazing journey. "In Japan the Crickets Cry," is a profoundly human missionary biography and will inspire readers with its story of how the Grace of God has worked in the life of Steve Metcalf.
