Synopsis

You’ve read the headlines and seen the news: government crackdowns on Chinese house churches, mass arrests, human rights violations. . . . But is it true? This intensely dramatic autobiography answers that question with the account of how God took a young half-starved boy and enabled him to stand strong for Jesus, braving horrific opposition and impossible odds.

For more than thirty years, Liu Zhenying, also known as Brother Yun, has been committed to bringing the gospel of Christ to all of China. Hunted, imprisoned, beaten, tortured, and separated from his wife and children, Brother Yun shares his story of incredible pain and suffering—and of powerful miracles and great joy. Featuring eyewitness accounts of prison escapes and healings, his words focus on the character and beauty of Jesus and challenge any reports that religious persecution is not still a daily reality for millions. Includes photos and reflections from his wife, Deling.

A life-changing true story of faith on the frontlines!

From AudioFile:

The world can do nothing to a Christian who has no fear of man, Brother Yun says as he tells the world about his trials as a leader in the Chinese house church movement. Brother Yun's testimony is read in a modest yet firm voice by Cristofer Jean. While soft-spoken, Jean conveys all the passion and pain in Yun's life as he hid from Chinese authorities or languished in prison, at times facing torture. Jeany Park reads his wife's accounts with similar grace, and Grover Gardner delivers the introduction with authority. Yun's determination to find God's message through his suffering brings a rare force to his message. J.A.S. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
