An Asian Harvest: An Autobiography

An Asian Harvest: An Autobiography

by PaulHattaway (Author)

Synopsis

Leaving home and his native New Zealand aged 16, Paul Hattaway found himself in Australia, homeless, hungry, and lonely, sleeping on the roof of a public bathroom. A waste of oxygen was his high school principal's assessment. After a fellow factory worker helped him to find faith, he quickly became convinced that God was calling him to China and in 1988 Paul arrived in Hong Kong with nothing more than a backpack, a single contact, and $50. He began work as a Bible courier, carrying hundreds at a time across the Chinese border under the noses of the guards. Today Paul Hattaway leads Asia Harvest, the ministry he founded, which supports thousands of indigenous missionaries and has supplied over 10 million Bibles to China and millions more to Christians throughout Asia. An Asian Harvest is his astonishing story.

It has been my privilege to have known Paul Hattaway for nearly twenty years. I have not met anyone else with his knowledge and understanding of the Church and people of Asia. He has experienced missionary life first hand, his research is legendary, and he appreciates the challenges of going to the unreached.

If you meet Paul, you will know that overriding all of this is his God-given desire to see Asia's billions saved from eternal death. -- Colin Dudgeon, AsiaLink, United Kingdom
