Embracing the Untouchables:
The Story of Tommy Tillman
by Stephen Fortosis.
Communist seamen were
docked at U.S. ports, but no one was reaching them with the gospel. An indian tribe in Central America was being taught that
salvation came through the church and their good deeds. Thousands in leper colonies in Thailand were not only losing their limbs,
but losing all hope, because no one seemed to care. Thai children of lepers slept in sewers, and Thai orphans were often sold
as sex slaves. Thousands in pro-Communist Mongolia had never heard that Jesus died for them too. One man emerged to bring
these peoples hope through demonstrating Christ's compassion and presenting to them the Gospel. This man was Tommy Tillman and
you simply must read his story.
Many years back, doctors told Tommy he would soon die from heart
complications, but he is still alive....He wants to continue his work until it is physically impossible to do so.
"Tommy Tillman ate and slept with the lepers of Thailand to reach them with the Gospel. He is one of the most outstanding missionaries
of our day. I am not exaggerating when I say that he is a modern day David Livingstone or Adoniram Judson. Reading about his life
of faith will seriously impact you!"
