About this book
Be inspired by a woman who dared to follow God
Amy Carmichael understood true discipleship and lived it out. At a young age she felt called to the mission field followed God's guidance and eventually went to India where she would spend fifty-three years without furlough.
While there Amy founded the Dohnavur Fellowship a refuge for children in moral danger--children who were orphaned or unwanted and sold to the temple. Amy became a mother for these children and so they called her "Amma."
Even today Amy's life of obedience and courage stands as a model for all Christians everywhere. We resonate with her desires and dreams her faults and fears her dedication and service. For former missionary and author Elisabeth Elliot Amy became a role model. "She showed me the shape of godliness" writes Elliot.
A Chance to Die is the life story of Amy Carmichael. In this reverent biography Elisabeth Elliot brings "Amma" to life providing a compelling unforgettable narrative that will provoke you to examine the depths of your own faith and encourage you to reaffirm your life and commitment to Christ.
