Writing in her folksy style, Barbara D'Antoni Diggs shares 40 heart-warming, true stories from some of her most memorable mission experiences.
In Suppose I Hadn't Listened you'll read about her adventures living in a grass hut, the 2,000 chickens that came to church, and a picnic on the frozen Gulf of Finland.
You can anticipate both moments of laughter and tears, with unexpected surprises, as you read about Rasita, Oxana, Zhanna, a man named "Squirrel," and other unique people she met along the way.
- What outfit did the village chief wear to church that caused the Americans to gasp in disbelief, but won the ultimate honor and respect of his people?
- When crossing the border into a communist-run territory, could they have disappeared forever?
- Why, when on a tour to Moscow, did their not-stop train make an unscheduled stop the middle of the night? Outside the window were four feet of snow and an eight foot high barbed-wire fence. Were they being taken to a concentration camp, instead?
Barbara hopes you'll enjoy reading about her favorite adventures and mishaps in Israel, Africa, Russia, Moldova and Hungary-and how God showed up and miracles happened.
For some lighthearted humor, be sure to read Stories Just for Fun near the end of the book.
