Walking Man: A Modern Missions Experience in Latin America Summary:
|
Narciso Zamora walks the message of Christ into the mountains, jungles, fields and forests of his native Peru and throughout
Ecuador and Chile. Dreading the life of hard labor offset by nights of drunken stupor that his father modeled, Zamora ran
away from home after high school. He lived a vagrant's life, surviving through delinquency, until through the generous
support of a Christian family, Zamora came to know Christ. He left the jungle to study at a seminary in Lima. Walking Man recounts Zamora's winding and treacherous path, literally and figuratively, toward finding his calling in missions. Characteristic of Zamora's more than 25 years of mission experiences is his determination to go anywhere he felt called to preach and teach – walking day and night into the jungle or trekking from valley to alpine zone and back down the other side of the mountain, just to reach an isolated village. With half a dozen well-established congregations in place in Peru, Zamora affiliated the churches with an international denomination and later moved to Ecuador and Chile planting churches. In Chile, a new trial faced the Zamora family when his wife's kidneys started to fail. Dealing with the emotional turmoil of a chronically ill spouse wore more heavily on him than any adversity he had encountered in his ministry. Zamora became depressed and in this chapter of his life, he learned new lessons and gained new insights about what it means to carry the cross of Christ. Walking Man, 199 pages, includes discussion primers for each chapter for use with book clubs; map illustration; translator's note; and afterword by Michael Cassidy, renown evangelist and founder of African Enterprise, on being a missionary where you are. About the Author: Narciso Zamora has been a church-planting missionary for over 25 years in Peru, Ecuador and Chile. Currently he is establishing an institute in Peru to train Latin Americans to be missionaries within their own continent. Pastor Zamora has presented his original training materials in numerous international conferences. Walking Man is a cross-cultural reading experience that tells a compelling story that and generates due interest in Latin American missions. For more, visit www.walkingman.ws. |
