George Müller cover

The taker who turned into a giver.


George Müller’s life didn’t have a promising start. By the age of sixteen, he had learned to lie, steal, drink and gamble and his future looked bleak – but God had other plans!

 

After conversion, Müller’s life became a vivid demonstration of faith in action. Praying in every penny of the costs and refusing at any time to ask for financial help from anyone but God, Müller supervised the building of three large orphanages housing thousands of children.

 

Müller’s hard work for the cause of Christ and on behalf of orphans, his commitment to their care and his example of faith in action inspired his generation and will do the same today.

 

The Trailblazer’s series collects great stories from Christians of the past and delivers them to the young people of today.  This gripping and astonishing story from Irene Howat will challenge young readers to trust God as Müller did.
