This biography chronicles how William Carey, despite his humble working-class roots and apprenticeship as a shoemaker, became instrumental in spreading Christianity globally. “William was an inquisitive child and keenly interested in the natural world around him.” He taught himself Latin and Greek while working as a shoemaker, later becoming a teacher, preacher, and pastor.
In 1792, Carey traveled to India with his family to evangelize. He leveraged his linguistic abilities to translate the Bible into Bengali, Hindi, and Sanskrit. The narrative positions him as the foundational figure of the contemporary missionary movement, embodying his own exhortation: “expect great things from God and attempt great things for God.”
