GOING STRONGLY FOR THE SUMMIT
DVD documentary of John Blanchard
Narrator Sarah Mardel
DayOne. 75 minutes. £12.00
This is a DVD documentary of the life of John Blanchard from his childhood in Guernsey throughout his 80+ years. Probably we are used to reading biographies but this DVD is an interesting and watch-able way to learn of this evangelist/author whom the Lord has used so much on a worldwide basis.
It is worth viewing because we learn of his life as one who is unsaved, yet involved with his local Anglican church in the Sunday School but heavily into gambling — but he goes to an Evangelistic Campaign and is saved. Being active in the Guernsey National Young Life Campaign and the Guernsey for God Campaign led him to see that the Lord was calling him to be an evangelist; eventually with the Movement for World Evangelisation.
