Bruchko : The astonishing story of a 19-year-old youth's capture by stone age Indians - and his adventures in Christianizing the Motilone tribe
Outline: What happens when a nineteen-year-old boy leaves home against his parents' wishes and heads into the jungle to work with a murderous tribe of South American Indians? Capture, disease, terror, loneliness, torture... are these the results of a boy's dream of serving God? Bruce Olson discovers by trial and error how to bring the message of Christ to a savage nation without destroying the beauty of their culture. Olson has lived with the Motilones for more than fifteen years. His efforts on their behalf have brought him into personal friendship with five consecutive Colombian presidents, and appearances before the United Nations, the Organization of American States, and many other governmental bodies. He has received many honors for his contribution to the medical and social well-being of these South American Indians.
