Book Reviews of Jungle Pilot
Book Review: A life of commitment
Summary: 5 Stars
Why is a person's life important?
Enjoyable as this biography was, I struggled for a time to understand Nate Saint's passion for such a small tribe when he was such a skilled and intelligent individual. Couldn't someone else do the job?
Ask that question when you read the book, and you'll be treated to a powerful reminder that for Christians, life value is not found in name recognition or influence or popularity (though Saint's death brought those things about!). Instead, Saint highlights the truth that value in the Kingdom of God is determined by unquestioning, always hoping, joyful submission to God's will. As God directs Nate's life, you will rejoice to see people come to know Christ through Nate's commitment to serving his Savior.
The book is simple, clear, and wonderful. I read it when I was 10, and understood it perfectly. I read it again when I was 21, and enjoyed it just as much. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
Summary of Jungle Pilot
This is edge-of-your-seat reading, a story about the adventure-filled life of aviator and missionary Nate Saint who was martyred in the jungles of Ecuador in the mid 1950s. Author Russell Hitt writes expressively of Saint's life, his work, and his laserlike persistence, through deep peril, in the service of the Lord. Jungle Pilot is an inspirational example of how one life challenged an entire generation of Christians.Saints Books
