Stones of Fire is the true story of Mary, a young Lisu tribeswoman who lived in south-west China, where Isobel Kuhn and her husband were pioneer missionaries. "The stone is only a stone until its heart is broken and the air has a chance to get in. The Christian convert is only a principle until he lets God have His way with him; break his heart, if that has to be! Anything in order to rip open the hardness and let God in! When the air has filled the fissures, then the stone is no longer a pebble. It is a gem, a precious opal, a stone of fire." (from back cover)
