William Carey and his family sailed to India in 1793. There he often faced hardship and sorrow, but he didn't abandon his mission and stayed for over 40 years. He oversaw more translations of the Bible than had been done in all previous Christian history combined. Life was never easy for William Carey. But he simply refused to quit, even when a devastating fire destroyed years of his literary work. His legacy has inspired countless others from his own day to the present. He became known as the revered "Friend of India" and the "Father of Modern Missions." William Carey shows dramatically how a life dedicated to God can make a profound difference in the world.
