Peace Child

My daughter is reading the 'Peace Child' by Don Richardson. a true story about Don and Carol Richardson who risked their lives to share the gospel with the Sawi people of New Guinea in 1962.

I read this book when I was 17 years-old (borrow from a friend: Gerson Malk) and I remember how these people made a impact on my life and made me look through their eyes to the compassion of God.
I had always waited until my kid have the age to read by herself and I am exultant about it.



Then that's it, a amazing story of salvation, redemption and love... always the Love from our Father.


To the Hebrews He was the Lamb of God, to the Greeks, the Logos. But to the Sawi He was the "Tarop Tim Kodon, the Perfect Peace Child--the ideal fulfillment of their own redemptive analogy!

to kill a mockingbird



"To Kill a Mockingbird is a novel by Harper Lee published in 1960. It was instantly successful, winning the Pulitzer Prize, and has become a classic of modern American literature."
The story is in Maycomb - a fictional town in Alabama through the eyes of Jean Louise 'Scout' Finch, sister of Jem and daughter of Mr. Atticus. A sweet, determined and a literate six year-old girl growing up in a political, social poverty years of 1930's.
I bought the book in an old bookshoppe that was closed in 2012. What a shame! I remembered the title because of the movie. I didn't watched it. I have always preferred to read. I had a nice and gentle sensation to read this warming story so full of life. I couldn't stop to read it until the end. I gave it to my daughter but is no time yet for her to read. I'll wait and one day will be the right time.
NOTE: Since I wrote this post I bought 3 more editions of this amazing book that seats now in my bookcase. In February 2015 at 88 years-old, Harper Lee nearly blind and deaf after a 2007 stroke, and after a lifetime of maintaining that she would never publish another novel, will released in July 2015 her second book "Go Set a Watchman". Her words were: I’m alive and kicking and happy as hell with the reactions of Watchman.
And, finally my daughter read "To Kill a Mockingbird" for the first time in 2014 in High School. She didn't appreciate it. 
I'll wait and one day will be the right.
