Robert Gilmour LeTourneau, who lived by the motto “God is my Partner,” discovered that such a partnership was an adventure far beyond anything he imagined. Mover of Men and Mountains is the autobiographical account that tells the remarkable story of an inventor, businessman, and generous giver whose life went on to impact millions.

Through heartwarming and often humorous stories, readers witness how God took a young man with little formal education and shaped him into a prolific inventor of earthmoving machinery. Known to his friends as R.G., LeTourneau learned to trust God through failure—eventually achieving such success that he gave away 90 percent his salary and profits to build God’s kingdom through missions and education.

Over the course of his life, alongside his wife Evelyn, LeTourneau founded LeTourneau University, secured 299 patents, and supplied 50 percent of the earthmoving equipment used by the Allied forces during World War II.

When R.G. invited God into his business, extraordinary things followed. This inspiring story encourages readers to do the same—and experience the wonder of God’s unwavering goodness and faithfulness firsthand.

For 25 years or more, I've been traveling this land of ours and a few foreign countries trying to teach and preach by word of mouth and example, that a Christian businessman owes as much to God as a preacher does.
