Born into a world where superstition and fear ruled every moment, Matula’s journey from tribal outcast to bold evangelist stands as a testament to the life-changing power of the Gospel. Beaten, bound, and left for dead, he miraculously escaped his enemies and found refuge among the missionaries at Ngombe. Through unimaginable trials—false accusations, brutal persecution, and the ravages of sleeping-sickness—Matula never wavered in his faith. His unwavering trust in God transformed not only his own life, but the hearts of chiefs, warriors, and villagers across the Lower Congo. Families were freed, schools founded, and entire towns kindled by his testimony. This inspiring account, written by John Bell from firsthand interviews and mission records, invites you to witness one man’s courage, one community’s revival, and one divine promise fulfilled: that “My word will not return to me empty.”Paperback on Amazon:https://amzn.to/4kIPqcVScroll Reader:https://scrollreader.com/audiobook/story-of-matula-a-congo-convertChapters & Timestamps(0:00) Opening(0:37) Introductory Note(5:08) 1 – Without Hope(10:57) 2 – Birth of Matula(18:57) 3 – Childhood of Matula(26:14) 4 – Murder of His Father(31:39) 5 – First News of the White Man(38:49) 6 – The White Man(47:35) 7 – Matula’s Conversion(1:01:43) 8 – Troubles and Trials(1:08:58) 9 – Persecution(1:18:54) 10 – Exodus(1:25:25) 11 – Revisiting His People(1:31:19) 12 – Treachery(1:40:39) 13 – Escape(1:49:30) 14 – Trial at Tumba(2:00:15) 15 – Days of Peace(2:05:10) 16 – Signs of Coming Trouble(2:12:35) 17 – Matula’s Last Days

Why read a book on Satan? Because the Bible presents him not as a vague force but as a real, personal being whose character and methods shape the spiritual battlefield we all inhabit. Edward M. Bounds digs into Scripture to reveal Satan’s proud intelligence, relentless activity, and mastery of deception—showing him as the roaring lion stalking the faithful (1 Peter 5:8) and the ancient serpent whose power reaches into every aspect of human life. To ignore such an adversary is to leave one’s heart and mind defenseless; to understand him is to see the scope of his assaults and to grasp why Christ’s victory must be our hope and shield.Paperback 📖: https://amzn.to/44pSRk1Chapters(0:00) Opening(0:21) Introduction – by Homer W.

The Life of Colonel James Gardiner written by Philip Doddridge, originally published in 1747.Colonel James Gardiner’s life reads like an epic of grace and courage. Born into a storied military family, he spent his youth dueling and chasing worldly pleasures — until a near-fatal wound at Ramillies and a stunning vision of Christ on the cross drove him to a radical conversion. From that moment on, he rose through Marlborough’s campaigns as a fearless officer, yet spent his dawn hours in prayer, led his troops with compassion and discipline, and poured out his riches for the poor.His letters pulse with the joy of redemption and the discipline of a man whose heart was fixed on heaven. When duty called again during the Jacobite uprising, Gardiner answered it with determined faith — rallying his dragoons at Prestonpans and falling by a mortal blow while urging them on. This moving memoir blends battlefield drama, intimate spiritual reflections, and an inspiring portrait of self-sacrifice.Listen on Scroll Reader: https://scrollreader.com/audiobook/life-of-colonel-james-gardiner/Paperback Book on Amazon: https://amzn.to/44tYBbqChapters(0:00) Opening(0:30) Introduction(4:18) 1 - Parentage and Early Days(9:32) 2 - Battle of Ramillies(17:19) 3 - Military Promotions(26:58) 4 - Checks of Conscience(34:28) 5 - His Conversion(1:23:50) 6 - Letters(1:49:33) 7 - Domestic Relations(2:00:23) 8 - Conduct As an Officer(2:13:32) 9 - Closeness to the Author(2:23:20) 10 - Devotion and Charity(2:33:19) 11 - Embarks for Flanders(2:41:12) 12 - Return to England(2:57:30) 13 - Revival of Religion(3:08:10) 14 - Apprehensions of Death(3:17:16) 15 - Battle of Prestonpans(3:39:04) Appendix 1 - The Colonel’s Personal Appearance(3:41:28) Closing

Kamil Abdul Messiah, a young Syrian trained in the Qur’an, found no rest until the Lord opened his heart through the Scriptures. Though rejected by his own people, he turned to Christ and gave himself to gospel labor, serving alongside Samuel Zwemer in reaching Muslims with the truth. His life was marked by humility, wisdom, and steadfast devotion to Christ. All due to his untimely death from poison, his earthly ministry was cut short, and he was buried under Muslim rites. Yet his writings endure, bearing witness that “the word of God is living and active” (Hebrews 4:12). His testimony stands as a reminder of the gospel’s power to save even in the hardest of fields.
