Summary
"I can stick to anything for two years," she said and ended up staying 42.
So said former OMF worker Miriam Davis, whose book Utterly Amazed: Following the call of God in Japan tells the story of how those two years became 42, as well as the surprising challenges of retiring to the UK in 2017.
In that time, as OMF Japan Field Directors Chris Pain and Kesia Pain say in their foreword, "Miriam has experienced the joys, challenges and pitfalls of missionary life. She tells the story of those years with honesty and a keen eye for how God was at work sustaining her, changing her and using her for his purposes.... The way in which she has shared her feelings, weaknesses and struggles gives testimony to God’s work in her life, and ultimately gives God the glory."
Join Miriam on her journey of following the Good Shepherd through all the twists and turns of sharing the good news of Jesus cross-culturally. Discover his faithfulness through culture shock, heartbreak, burnout and the joy of this journey. And find comfort, challenge, and spiritual food for your own life!

A great encouragement
This is the fascinating life story of a modern missionary. I would particularly recommend the book to anyone interested in the spiritual life of Japan or in the possibility of serving God anywhere abroad. It gave me food for thought, encouragement in my own walk with God and taught me a great deal about the challenges for the Christian Church in Japan. Read by the author, it has a gentle and honest style which I enjoyed (I only put 4 stars because it was slightly slow in narration for me and I had to speed up the playback but that is a very minor thing). Do listen and share with Christian friends and members of your church.
