Captured by Indians
God's Providential Care
From the pages of what came to be known a "America's first best-seller," evangelist/historian Richard "Little Bear" Wheeler recaptures and retells the heroic biographical account of an early American settler who survived and triumphed amidst a treacherous, perilous encounter with invading Indians.
In the year 1675, Mary Rowlandson and her children were suddenly captured by the Narragansett Indians during King Phillip's War and removed to the depths of the hostile wilderness. Colonial life for Mary, the wife of a Puritan pastor, would forever be a lamentable memory of the past. Or, so it seemed. However, despite anguishing months of captivity, God faithfully sustained His own. The ultimate assurance of God's Holy Word... "persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed..." lent hope and comfort to the persevering captured mother. (Suitable for all ages.)
