AIRBORNE AT THE END OF THE EARTH

AIRBORN AT THE END OF THE EARTH by Nate Gordon

This is a wonderful collection of stories from the twenty years Nate Gordon and his family spent as missionaries in Papua New Guinea. Nate was a missionary pilot, and he recounts the difficulties of creating runways on the sides of mountains (and landing on them), transporting desperately ill people from remote places to hospitals, carrying livestock, bringing the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the deepest parts of the jungle, and more. For the past couple of weeks, I've been ending my days with a few of these stories before turning in for the night. I have truly looked forward to bedtime reading.
