--__Paul L. Davis__, president, Association of Baptists for World Evangelism  
  
"No book has had such a broad-ranging impact on modern missions as Let the Nations Be Glad! But don't read the book because it's a classic, don't read the book for the riveting missionary stories, and don't read the book because of the man. Read this book because it will teach you to cherish God and worship him alone. Every Christian should read this book."  
--__J. Mack Stiles__, director, Messenger Ministries  
  
"When working on my PhD, I asked top missiologists for their list of the best books on missions. Let the Nations Be Glad! featured on every one of those lists. Thirty years after it was first published, may this new edition give yet another generation of God's children a high view of God in missions!"  
--__Conrad Mbewe__, pastor of Kabwata Baptist Church; founding chancellor of the African Christian University  
  
"Churches, seminaries, and missionaries for the last thirty years have drawn heavily on this resource in recognizing the theological underpinnings to the Great Commission. May the King be pleased to use it as powerfully for another thirty years."  
--__Brooks Buser__, president, Radius International
