Taking himself by surprise, at the Keswick convention in 1965 David Robinson stood to respond to a call to missionary service. A new Christian, David couldn’t imagine that this simple yet significant step would be the beginning of 50 years of missionary service in Central Thailand, Cambodia and the UK.
Mud, Bullets and Open Roads is the story of an ordinary life lived in obedience to God with extraordinary consequences. Through testing and opposition, hardship and bereavement, the joy of conversions and the ups and downs of church planting, God is faithful. This insight into missionary life and God’s extraordinary power will inspire young and old alike as we see that when following the Lord the best is yet to come.
Selected commendations:
"What a page turner! David Robinson’s fascinating account of his years as a missionary makes exciting and inspiring reading. Definitely a missionary autobiography not to be missed."
Tony Lane, Professor of historical theology at the London School of Theology
"In our world of competing choices, this book could be challengingly subtitled “This one thing I do” (Phil 3 :23). David's life as a church planter in rural Thailand, and Team leader in Cambodia exemplifies this singular commitment to obey God. Through sufferings and loss, joys and triumphs the book illustrates powerfully the Lord's faithfulness and sovereignty in all circumstances. This is authentic David, as I have known him, through his 50 years in mission, pursuing his goal: “one thing I do” in following Christ. Read the book and follow David's example."
David Pickard, former International Director of OMF
