Adventure Series - Set of 9

African Adventures

These are three words that sum up this amazing continent. But with some of the fiercest animals in the world the continent of Africa can be hard and hostile too. Read about Lions, Hyenas, Crocodiles and Snakes as well as the human beings who live and work alongside them. What happens when a leopard starts to attack the local livestock? What does the doctor do when bandits arrive? And when the missionaries get lost on safari what is sent to find them? Discover how a missing cow reminds us about something that Jesus did, and that it doesn't matter what country you live in—God always speaks your language!

Cambodian Adventures

Find out about the nation of Cambodia and what it's like to live and work in the Far East amongst the Khmer people. Experience the reality of missionary life in a Buddhist country. Join in with the adventure as you travel around in taxis, vans, trucks, carts and tuk-tuks—small roofed carriages pulled around by a motorcycle. Discover what a fried spider tastes like and what drink tastes like pureed cabbage! As you clamber through jungle and through rice paddy fields you will find out how to repel a snakebite and how God loves the people here as much as anywhere.

Himalayan Adventures

If mountain climbing is your thing you will enjoy coming on this expedition!

There are also fascinating people and cultures to discover. Find out what its like to be in the countries of the Himalayas—India, Bhutan, Tibet, Pakistan, Bangladesh, China and Nepal—and see God at work in his people and his creation.

Kiwi Adventures

New Zealand is a fascinating country. Not only does it have one of the most unusual flightless birds, the Kiwi, but also many other claims to fame. If you thought it was the Wright brothers who first flew in an airplane—think again. The Kiwis reckon it was one of their own, Richard Pearse. But there is no disputing the fact that it was a New Zealander, Murray Kendon, who started Mission Aviation Fellowship. MAF planes are used across the world to bring help and the good news of Jesus Christ to thousands of people in far flung places.

New York City Adventures

New York City is full of excitement at any hour of the day or night. Imagine riding in a speedboat out to the Statue of Liberty, or having a sleep over in the Museum of Natural History. You can walk across the famous Brooklyn Bridge or watch a movie being filmed right on the street. Or maybe you'd like to head over to the zoo and watch the penguins being fed. You could even travel back in time, to experience life as an early New Yorker. For hundred of years New York has been known as "The Big Apple"—the best place in the world to be.

Pacific Adventures

The Pacific Ocean is the largest Ocean in the world and extends from the Arctic in the North to the Antarctic in the South. It covers 46% of the earth's surface and 32% of its total surface area. It is an amazing part of the world with extraordinary animals and habitat. Many cultures live alongside it from Asia to Australia and the Americas. Read the real life stories of the explorers who discovered the peoples and islands of this region, as well as the missionaries who brought God's Word and the good news of the gospel to the people living in the Pacific. Be astonished at the incredible beauty and breathtaking wonder of this huge ocean.

Scottish Highland Adventures

The far north of Scotland brings to mind history, adventure and excitement. There are wild mountains and dramatic glens. Red deer populate the forests and if you pay attention you might even spot a golden eagle on the wing. But as well as magnificent mountain scenery, the Highlands also boast one of the United Kingdom's few resident colonies of dolphin. While many tourists visit Scotland to experience the scenery and culture, people from the Scottish Highlands have travelled across the globe. Citizens of countries like Australia, America and Canada can trace their family roots back to this country.

Wild West Adventures

Cowboys and Indians, buffalo stampedes, eating well-roasted mouse as a cure for measles—what was it like to live in the Wild West? This area of America stretched from the Mississippi River all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Although you don't often see covered wagons or teepees these days, there are still cowboys and Indians. And the West is still wild—especially when you consider what else lives there—bears, coyotes and poisonous snakes! You can be like a pioneer as you explore this part of God's surprising and wonderful world. Come along on the journey!
