This testimony of God’s presence in the trial and the lessons learned will encourage and challenge every reader.

I finished the book praising God for their courage, and even more, for His all–sufficient grace in our Lord Jesus Christ.

This gripping book tells a true story of hostage–taking and murder, told first–hand by those who experienced it. It is also the story of how three hostages found God’s perspective in a time of great trial from a Bible which they had with them in captivity. I found the book both humbling and a great challenge to complacency.
