Lives Given, Not Taken: 21st Century Southern Baptist Martyrs by International Mission Board President Jerry Rankin and IMB senior writer Erich Bridges, tells the story of eight Southern Baptist workers killed in the past three years.
Bill Koehn, Kathy Gariety and Martha Myers, medical missionaries, were killed Dec. 30, 2002, at Jibla Baptist Hospital in Yemen by a Muslim militant. Bill Hyde died in a terrorist bombing in the Philippines on March 4, 2003. David McDonnall, Larry and Jean Elliott and Karen Watson – a team of humanitarian relief workers – were killed by insurgents on March 15, 2004, while driving in Iraq.
The book describes the impact the martyrs had on those around them, not just through their deaths but also during their lives.
