The Story of George Müller

We explore the incredible life and faith of George Müller, a man whose unwavering trust in God transformed the lives of countless orphans in 19^th-century England. Beginning with a troubled youth marked by dishonesty and even a brief stint in prison, Müller’s life took a dramatic turn when he encountered the love of Jesus through a university Bible study. Inspired by the stories of missionaries who had given up everything to serve others, he felt called to live by faith, relying solely on God’s provision rather than asking for financial support. His radical dependence on prayer and scripture led him to establish orphanages that cared for thousands of children, proving time and again that God provides in miraculous ways.

Through stories of Müller’s faith in action — like the morning he prayed for food with hundreds of children despite empty cupboards, only for a baker and milkman to unexpectedly arrive with provisions — we are reminded of the power of bold, confident prayer. This episode challenges us to reflect on our own faith, asking whether we truly trust in God’s provision as Müller did. As we embark on a series celebrating stories of ordinary people encountering Jesus and transforming lives, we hope to inspire listeners to live with courage, faith, and generosity.
