Through Her Eyes
By Marti Smith
A rare and much-needed resource for women in or considering long-term missions
In addition to the difficult adjustments all missionaries face in a new culture, women serving in the Muslim world often have additional challenges: new roles and identities that are quite different from their old lives.

About the Author
Marti Smith has spent ten years as a research coordinator for the ministry of Caleb Project in Littleton, Colorado. She began collecting stories for this book while living and working with a church-planting team in Central Asia.

I feel better equipped to encourage my worker friends living in North Africa, the Horn of Africa, and Central Asia. My special friend in North Africa is newer to the field, about ten months now. Our communication has changed since reading your book. As a sender, I feel I have better insight to her life and struggles. A new dimension of honest sharing on her part is happening.

“I think she senses someone on
this side of the world may understand what she is going through.”
