Planting Gospel Seeds

Planting Gospel Seeds

by Rose Dowsett
How can a remote tribe that has never met a Christian — who can’t read a Bible in their language or visit a local church — hear the good news of Jesus?
In Planting Gospel Seeds, Rose Dowsett explores one of the most profound questions in Christian mission: how does the gospel reach those who have never had any access to it? Her answer unfolds through the extraordinary true story of the mountain-dwelling Tadyawan people of the Philippines, and through the life of Canadian missionary Dode Pack.
Dode and her colleagues devoted their lives to finding and sharing the gospel with the Tadyawan — a remote tribe with no written language, no church, and no contact with Christians. They persevered through the mountains to reach them and painstakingly learnt to communicate in a language never before written down. Yet what they discovered was that God had already been at work, preparing the Tadyawan for their arrival and for his message.
Alongside Dode’s story, Rose draws on her own experiences with Christian students in Manila and decades of global ministry, weaving together a vision for how God can use you, wherever you are, to carry the gospel today.
