Any Ol' Bush Will Do: The Life Story of John Corey

By Jim Morud and John Corey

John Corey was an ordinary man who did extraordinary things because of a God-given vision and a stubborn will to see it through. This book is at times plain and simple, down-to-earth, while other times it soars up to heaven. It captures the heart and soul of old school missionaries who didn't know the meaning of "short-term." Crossing the Atlantic on a freighter, traveling in Africa from village to village on a mule, getting mail every 4-6 weeks, dealing with poisonous snakes and no running water or indoor bathroom. It's a story of raising children who came to regard Africa as their home; a story of what missions once was that captures the heart of what missions will always be. John Corey's was a life full of joys and sorrows. I was deeply moved by the account of his death, before which he spoke personally with and blessed every child and grandchild. In a time when we think too much about inheritances and too little about heritage, John and Jeanette Corey have left their family a remarkable heritage. Reunion awaits in a far better world. Read this book and learn the calling, costs, joys and ultimate rewards of missions, and of living with an eternal perspective. - Randy Alcorn, author of Heaven
