Beyond
Madagascar
by Conrad Braaten,
former pastor of Ascension
Beyond
Madagascar is the true story of the remarkable life journey of a missionary's
son born and raised in Madagascar in the late 1920s. Alone, at age 15, he
sailed on a freighter to America to continue his studies. The foundation of
the world he knew as a child, carried him beyond Madagascar and into a world
of adventure. His story is the stuff dreams are woven from: international
travel, jungle experiences, safaris with his father, boarding school antics,
military service, Counter Intelligence Corps and eventually global mission
outreach.
|
|
He
was in the Army for ten years and after becoming a pastor, was involved
in various aspects of Christian ministry for over 30 years, including
his experience as pastor of Ascension for more than 20 years. His book
is filled with humor and compassion, colorful antics and deep pain, all
the while conveying a message of hope as he was guided by God's constant
presence. His story reminds us that God is always there, waiting,
listening and ready to be a part of our life's journey.
