It compiles the top 100 world mission stats that should shake every Christian's world and groups them into 10 categories (world evangelization, global population, refugees, unreached peoples, Christian giving, poverty...). Almost seven out of ten Christians are oblivious to the true state of affairs in our world today and this book aims to bring awareness and action to the church in a very poignant and concise format.

Having been a passionate writer all her life, Lucy began to write regularly for the local paper, after she settled in Soledad, CA. 'Window on the World' began in 2003 as a weekly newspaper column in 'The Soledad Bee'. Lucy wrote about her life and about life as she saw it.

Her local librarian Angie Lopez told her she needed to compile a book from her columns; so she did.
