Presence of Christ Inspires Faith in Paraguyan Missionary
One of South America's greatest missionaries, Wilfred Barbrook Grubb, lived among fierce Paraguayan tribes and was the first white man to return alive. Indians later recalled a constant Presence with him, a presence they sensed as Christ, suggesting a nearer, transforming faith for both saints and sinners. The piece urges personal closeness to Christ, rejects stern depictions, and recounts a tale of a Scot’s chair symbolizing Christ’s nearness, urging readers to imagine Christ beside them.
