This book, ideal for family use as well as for individual reading, focuses on 52 countries or groups of people around the world. With two groups or countries for every letter of the alphabet, it's evident that Johnstone did a vast amount of research to find out about the world's citizens--from the Azaris to the Quechua to the Zulus.
Each chapter tells about the people, their land, religions, customs, and more. Illustrations include flags and maps of the various countries as well as the children, foods, clothing, and conditions of the area. Most importantly, each chapter lists seven specific ways to pray for the country or people group.
Johnstone names missionaries or agencies working in the different countries, methods of evangelism currently being used, and the physical and spiritual needs of the people. Readers are encouraged to learn about one country or group each week, praying for one request each day.
Give your children or your entire family or a youth group at church a chance to make a difference with You Can Change the World.
