I finished Too Small to Ignore. It was one of those books that was so good, you had a hard time putting it down. I finished it in a week. As busy as I am and being the slow reader that I am, I thought that was incredible that I finished it so quickly.
Wess Stafford shares his childhood experiences from two perspectives. He shares many wonderful stories from his childhood living in an African village as the son of a missionary. He learned the true meaning of love and the meaning of a simple life. He counters this with some truly gruesome stories of time in a boarding school for missionary children. It's horrible and painful to read. Both of these experiences lay the groundwork for his passion for helping children in poverty.
He ends his book by providing many thoughts about how we can put children at a higher priority in our lives. It was a wake up call to me and I highly recommend that you check this book out. It will change your thinking about who we should be ministering to!
Next on my list is Ninety Minutes in Heaven.
