"Charles E. Cowman" is an intimate and inspiring biography of the pioneering missionary and co-founder of the Oriental Missionary Society. Penned by his wife and lifelong partner in ministry, Lettie B. Cowman, this work chronicles the remarkable life of a man whose spiritual vision helped transform the landscape of Christian missions in East Asia. The narrative follows Cowman from his early career in the American Midwest to the divine calling that led him to Japan and Korea at the turn of the 20th century.The book details the founding of the Tokyo Bible Institute and the strategic efforts to share the Gospel through the "Every Creature Crusade," a massive undertaking to reach every household in Japan. Through personal anecdotes, correspondence, and reflections, the author illustrates her husband's unwavering faith, his commitment to the Holiness movement, and the physical and spiritual sacrifices made for his calling. Beyond its historical value as a record of early 20th-century evangelical efforts, the work serves as a powerful testament to a life of total surrender and the enduring legacy of a dedicated missionary pioneer. Readers will find an inspiring portrait of devotion that captures the spirit of the global missionary movement.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
