Little Girl Big God

God can use the smallest life to impact the world.

Little Girl, Big God shows how God takes a country girl from the hills of Kentucky and plants her in the jungles as a missionary. In her memoir, Lorrie Lockhart illustrates how God used her ordinary life and multiplied it in extraordinary ways.

Lorrie Lockhart was born in rural Kentucky to loving parents who knew very little about God. Through missionaries, she found God and learned that, though small in stature, God could use her. At a young age, Lorrie felt God drawing her into missions.

She and her husband Austin spent many years on the island of New Guinea teaching primitive tribes about God’s love and redemption. Little Girl, Big God chronicles Lorrie and Austin’s journey to become missionaries and the work among the people.

Multiple photos allow readers a historical look into missionary life in the 1950s and 1960s, and the book covers the challenges of linguistics as well as raising a family so far from home.
