Description

Ernest Lloyd's life spans almost the entire twentieth century. At the age of six he was placed in the care of the Naomi Children's Home run by the Barbican Mission to the Jews and in his teens he came to faith in Jesus as his Messiah.

At the age of twenty he became a missionary with the British Jews Society and for seventy years he has travelled the globe as a missionary to his own people and as an ambassador of Jewish mission. He has also played a major role in the birth and growth of the modern Messianic Jewish movement. The book chronicles the important role Ernest played in Jewish mission during the twentieth century and how, through his ministry, many Jews and Gentiles, including entire families, have come to know the Messiah. The book also provides insights into Jewish life, culture and religion.

Evangelicals Now


An absorbing and highly rewarding read.

Tom Lennie ~ author of 'Glory in the Glen: A History of Evangelical Revivals in Scotland 1880-1940'


"Mike Moore rightly records that the number of lives Ernest Lloyd touched for good...cannot be counted.' I am among them. In my teens I tried never to miss a meeting when Ernest came to Dublin, and, for two memorable hours, he counselled me on the future course of my life. I have revelled in this book - laughing over Ernest's inimitable typing, shedding quiet tear over Jessie's death, and always standing in very loving awe of a giant among the servants of the Lord Jesus. Let him be your teacher and example as he has been mine!"

Alec Motyer ~ Well known Bible expositor and commentary writer


"an inspiration to me...a great read"
