Called to Suffer

Book excerpt: All over the world, Christians are suffering for their faith. This book reveals the true stories of eighteen believers who know first-hand the truth of Jesus' words: "If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also." Here you will learn of: the Romanian pastor who ends up with crippled arm after his car is rammed deliberately on orders of the state; the Chinese pastor whose family fails to recognize him after his realease from twenty-one years in prison; the Indian pastor and his wife who are beat up and robbed by a Hindu mob furious at the couple's evangelistic success. "But we have here something much more than 'cases', says aothor Herbert Schlossberg. "These are the life stories of flesh-and-blood people, some of which are told to us at the cost of fearful risks to safety of the tellers." All who read these remarkable stories of courage and perseverance will find their faith strengthened.
