To know Christ and to make him known...

From his youth as a liar, gambler, and pool shark to manhood as an indefatigable witness for his Lord Jesus Christ, Dawson Trotman revolutionized the practice of evangelism and founded one of the most widespread and respected Christian organizations in the world today.

What moved and motivated this extraordinary man of God?

In Daws, you'll experience the convictions and passions that guided Trotman's life: his deep love of God's Word, his lifelong dedication to prayer, and his determination to live out the Great Commission. This moving historical account, drawn from the memories of those whose lives he touched and from the author's firsthand knowledge, will both encourage you in your faith and inspire you to action.

Since I have been a Christian for a long time, many of these names were familiar. It was really cool to hear how Trotman led the way in many of the modern day evangelism organizations. It was fascinating to me.

Dawson Trotman’s ministry personally influenced YOUNG LIFE, WYCLIFFE BIBLE TRANSLATORS, CAMPUS CRUSADE FOR CHRIST, YOUTH FOR CHRIST, CBMC, INTERVARSITY and countless other universities, bible colleges and ministries in the U.S. and around the world.

He was a spiritual giant whose personal convictions paired with strong disciplines helped him to develop an incredible walk with God that was very deep and full of spiritual fruit. He became a wise father in the faith at a young age.

His view on “follow-up,” discipleship, Bible verse memorization, and discipline revolutionized ministry and evangelism in the 20th century for the better. His team personally helped to design a follow-up system for BILLY GRAHAM crusade attendees who made decisions for Christ. So that they would not be left to starve spiritually.

He sacrificially gave his life to save another in a tragic accident. Dying just as he lived. For others.
The Navigators, the ministry he founded, is running to this day and bringing ministry tools to Military Servicemen around the world and so much more.

I’m personally seeing fruit in my life because of Dawson’s ministry and I’m thankful for it. This is a great book that’s very insightful to not only the pretty sides of his life but even the ugly.
Much to learn from a giant in the faith. Such a worthy the read!

Personally influenced Billy Graham, Wycliffe, Young Life, and Campus Crusade!

This was a very inspiring book. He had true God given drive, desire and determination. We need more Christian leaders like him.

I got converted in Romania through two couples that were formed in a Navigators environment.
I was started in Christian living by learning by heart verses that were essential to growth.
It was illuminating to see the dynamic life of the guy who started all.
To see how the B rations appeared (that nourished my new life in Christ) at 40 years after the "inventor" died.
His life and legacy were God ordained.
Grateful for a man like him.
I was reminded of the importance of investing deeper in few that will reproduce rather than spreading thin in ministry.
Good pace for the narrator.
A full book.

This is an excellent exposition of the life of Dawson Trotman. I have it ***** because of the details and chronology that made it easy to follow Dawson’s life and ministry to others.

There are a few sections where the voice of the reader clearly changes but it is far more easy to listen to than some other reads whose readers are very soft.

Moving book on World Vision

This is a book that I wish every Christian in the world would read. This is a book that takes time to get through, but it is one that changed my life forever. I have read it multiple times now and I could not recommend it any more than I do!

One of the best books I have ever read!
