William Carey by Janet Benge
Obliged to Go
An impoverished English cobbler with an unshakable vision leaves home to share the gospel in India, confronting sickness, personal tragedy, cultural resistance, and financial ruin. Through relentless perseverance, linguistic brilliance, and practical compassion, he helps translate Scripture into multiple languages, establishes printing presses and schools, opposes inhumane practices, and lays the groundwork for the modern missionary movement. This biography highlights endurance, innovation, and faith that turn setbacks—including catastrophic fire and family hardship—into a legacy that transforms a nation and inspires generations.
