I’ve been reading this fantastic autobiography of Derek Prince, written by Stephen Mansfield, and it’s truly an amazing story how Derek went from atheist with all the book learning in the world and British upper class power at his beck and call to dedicated, Spirit-filled Christian serving the needy and the poor thousands of miles away from any place he normally might call home. If you’re interested in Derek Price’s life — perhaps you’ve been reading his books or hearing his sermons for many years — you owe it to yourself to read this book.

I’m struck by the incongruence of your words… why would someone give up what so many people are clawing to obtain: status, money, intellectual achievement? What did he get in return.
Of course, we know the answer. He didn’t get someTHING. He got someONE! ‘Cause Jesus is not an historical figure… He is an intoxicating reality. He is a rare treasure worth ANY price… any sacrifice. This is the testimony of Derek Price’s life with Jesus…
…one man’s opinion, anyway.
