"Outrageous Grace" is a memoir by a Wycliffe Bible translator about her and her husband's work translating the Bible for the Nabak people in Papua New Guinea. Grace talked briefly about their childhoods and why they choose to be translators, the challenges of translating the Bible and how they did it, and about her husband's death and the troubles and forgiveness that happened afterward. There were some black and white photos of the people mentioned in the story.Overall, the story was very inter [...]
While Grace and Edmund Fabian were serving as Wycliffe Bible translators in Papua New Guinea, Grace’s husband Edmund was brutally murdered. This memoir tells the story of how Grace walks through the shock and terrible grief to come to a place of forgiveness and continued ministry. This is not a feel-good book with easy answers – Grace struggles to deal not only with the heartbreaking circumstances of the murder, but also with the actions of an inadequate criminal justice system. Tragedy lead [...]
This was an amazing story - inspiring and hopeful. I found it comforting to read how God comforted Grace in the midst of her grief, and how He graciously revealed to her the reason for her husband's tragic death. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the writing is not great (and the editing left much to be desired!). The individual stories were a bit choppy, and I found it a little difficult to connect the dots. I would love to hear her speak in person, however, and I would [...]
I grew up in Ukarumpa, Papua New Guinea with the author but knew very few details of the family tragedy that happened in Ukarumpa because I was a little girl when it happened. I wanted to find out more about the author's struggle and incredible forgiveness. She is a legend in the Ukarumpa community. Tears came to my eyes so many times as I pondered the overwhelming feelings Grace Fabian describes in the book. Well worth the read!
I was so blessed by this book and Grace's story. I was moved many times throughout the book by the trust Grace had in God, even when threatened by those around her. The grace of God was all over her and those God placed in her path. Thank you, Grace, for sharing your story and for allowing God to use you, even when you might have felt He had forgotten you. I loved your book.
This is a book full of faith and hope. It shares the account of the Fabian family's missionary work, but it's much more than a story. It reaches into the every day lives of people like me. My favorite quote: "I knew whatever happened, it was God who had the final say. Prayers ascended. It's okay to be in the dark with God. His presence makes all the difference."
Beautiful book about the grace of God and the importance of forgiveness. The author does ramble a bit at times, but it is written with a very personal perspective, and full of inspiring verses and relating quotes. Definitely worth my time.
A moving testimony of tragedy and forgiveness by Grace Fabian, missionary to Papua New Guinea. The writing and editing are not the best, but I do recommend the book because of the touching story. I was blessed by getting to meet Mrs. Fabian in person. The Lord has and is using her mightily.
This testimonial is an excellent read for those struggling with hatred and bitterness. Grace found her husband's body minutes after he had been hatcheted to death by a native in Papua New Guinea. Her journal accounts God's grace in her life, which enabled her to forgive instead of seek revenge.
The actual story and the way that God worked was wonderful to read - He is true to all His promises. The style of writing, and way in which events were described weren't to my preference, making it a little bland to read in parts, but the story was interesting.
Great testimony, Great book
Incredible view of grace. One of the most moving accounts I've ever readd Mrs. Fabian is every bit as gracious in person. A lady who simply radiates grace.
A startling & beautiful story of God's faithfulness. I love that Mrs. Fabin kept a journal of her talks with God.
Wow.
Chapters 21-22 were the very best part of the book! Our God is so amazing, and so is His grace.
Wonderful! Encouraging! Real!"As I touched the softness of the chestnut brown kambun, I marveled at its construction. Dots of the sticky substance still remained along the edges. I couldn't help but wonder how those little larvae chose the three who would stay on the outside and die. Who knew that Kondo would die at Edmond would die and that God's own Son would die? Wasn't it all part of a sovereign, incomprehensible, loving plan?"
