This biography takes the reader into the fascinating life of the famous "Father of Orphans of Bristol." This extraordinary man, who made history in the revival movement, led a life of deep faith and unconditional devotion to God. George Müller, who had turned away from God in his youth, experienced a radical conversion to Christ. The book illuminates this pivotal turning point in Müller's life and shows how he impressively became a living witness to God's promises and a blessing to many.
After his conversion, George Müller felt called to serve the needy and the poor. He began to build an orphanage ministry with the vision of sharing God's love with the many children on the streets of England. Müller meticulously recorded answered prayers—over 50,000 of which he noted in his diaries throughout his life. Over the years, George Müller took in more than 10,000 orphans. Without ever asking for money or donations, he founded his ministry solely through prayer and trust in God's goodness and guidance.
This book has the potential to ignite the fire of prayer and faith in every reader. George Müller once said that the great fault of God's children is that they do not continue to pray constantly—this truth becomes clear when reading his life story. His devotion and selflessness are inspiring and encouraging, encouraging us to prove ourselves only to God.
