The Missionary Manual

"The Missionary Manual" by Amos R. Wells is a practical guide for anyone called to missionary work—meant to shape both the heart and the strategy of service. Rather than offering abstract inspiration alone, it focuses on how to prepare, how to speak and live with purpose, and how to approach people with patience, clarity, and conviction. Wells emphasizes disciplined effort, spiritual readiness, and a clear understanding of the mission's goal, showing readers how to organize their work, avoid common pitfalls, and stay faithful under real-world challenges. Written to be used, not just read, the book aims to turn desire into action and help missionaries carry their message with confidence and consistency. The Missionary Manual is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1899.
