At a time when most Christians never considered the millions of people in other countries who didn't know Jesus, William Carey (1761-1934) dedicated his life to bringing the Good News to people who had never heard it. Leaving his familiar life in England behind, William sailed to far-away India on a missionary quest filled with heartache and victory.
