No, nothing is too hard for God

Too Hard For God?Too Hard For God? by Charles R. Marsh
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was an amazing window into the work of CR Marsh & his wife who worked among the Kabyle Berber people of Algeria. Oh my, to read of the miles of hiking that Marsh did almost every week in order to be up in isolated mountain regions was so challenging, so inspiring. He would often be on the move up in the mountains for 10+ hours/day + hours of driving from his city home into & out of the mountains. Harsh, difficult context--but amazing to see how God was at work through him--and his wife, among the women--and wonderful to see how open people were at times to hear the Word of God shared with them in their villages/mosques. I was very encouraged by their long-term work and committed focus. Also interesting to see how often their work went hand-in-hand with meeting human needs (usually of a simple medical nature). As Marsh makes so evident, no there is nothing too hard for God, nothing.
