Hudson Taylor
Copy from Chapter 1 Power of Prayer …
I had many opportunities in early years of learning the
value of prayer and of the Word of God; for it was the
delight of my dear parents to point out that if there were
any such Being as God, to trust Him, to obey Him, and to
be fully given up to His service must of necessity be the
best and wisest course both for myself and others.
Cornerstone Curriculum 21

Hudson Taylor
Copy from Chapter 12 Called to Swatow…
O Lord, how happy should we be
If we would cast our care on Thee,
If we from self would rest;
And feel at heart that One above,
In perfect wisdom, perfect love,
Is working for the best!
22
My Passport to China © 2007 Quine

Hudson Taylor
Copy from Chapter 13 Man Proposes, God Disposes .…
I had not then learned to think of God as the One Great
Circumstance “in whom we live, and move, and have our
being”; and of all lesser, external circumstances, as
necessarily the kindest, wisest, best, because either
ordered or permitted by Him.
Cornerstone Curriculum 23

Queen of the Dark Chamber
”In addition to the spiritual value of this moving story, it is also a good source

Sister Seven is a native, from a wealthy cultured and scholarly home. You get

Director of the Chinese Mission of New England

GLADYS AYLWARD: THE LITTLE WOMAN
Copy from Chapter 7 Mrs. Ching …
Many understood that just as the young girls’ feet were
bound up by cloth, their own hearts were bound by sin. And
when a person trusts in Jesus, their hearts are set free
from sin. What a wonderful God we serve!

Cornerstone Curriculum 37

A GREAT ADVENTURE OF A GREAT MYSTERY -
We are about to begin an adventure of a life time. An adventure to the
oldest continuous civilization of the world, to a land filled with mystery and
intrigue, to a land closed for hundreds of years to people from the West.
Our adventure begins in England, 1837, in the home of Hudson Taylor,
a five your old boy pretending to be an explorer and missionary to China as
his father reads the brilliantly illustrated travels of famous explorers. We will
travel back with Hudson in his imagination to one such explorer - Marco Polo.
We will ride past ‘fortified castles and walled towns, creeping along twisting
mountain roads in a caravan’ until we meet the Emperor Khan of China.
Once in China we will see strange things - things that Marco Polo
said no explorer from Europe had ever seen and returned to tell! However,
the things we see, we will live to tell about. We will learn the mystery of the
secret code embedded into the Ancient Chinese Oracle Bones - the code
that confirms the mystery of the antediluvian world!
We will also learn the mystery of the four hearts:
One heart binds all in darkness.
One Heart dies to free them.
One heart lives to tell them
of the One Heart who rules them all.
