Description
Welcome to the God's Peculiar People Podcast where we are beginning a series to explore the life and legacy of William Carey. William Carey is known as the "Father of Modern Missions." But before he left England to serve as a missionary in India he wrote a paper called "An Enquiry into the Obligations of Christians to Use Means for the Conversion of the Heathens. in which the Religious State of the Different Nations of the World, the Success of Former Undertakings, and the Practicability of Further Undertakings, are Considered."
