What is A Candle In The Dark about?
FROM THE BACK Set in the Republic of Vanuatu (formerly New Hebrides), A Candle in the Dark acquaints the reader with the courage, endurance and what historian Stephen Neill called dogged determination of missionaries in the Pacific Islands. The book also deepens our understanding about the changing role of modern Bible translators in countries where national peoples are assuming greater responsibility for the translation of the Scriptures into their own ethnic languages. Writing in his characteristic style, Hugh Steven weaves the romance of history, the compelling beauty of the islands, and the importance of working in a partnership with national translators, into a literary tapestry. This tapestry is fringed with the drama of cyclones, a foundering ship, sharks, and the surrender of a young womans rebellious spirit to the overwhelming love of God. Hugh Steven is author-at-large for Wycliffe Bible Translators, Inc. He, with his wife Norma, has served with Wycliffe since 1956. The Stevens make their home in Santa Ana, California."
