War and Faith: Short Biographies from the Second World War, Paperback/Don Stephens

Descriere

The Second World War was the most destructive conflict in human history. More than forty million people died and millions more suffered all kinds of loss. This sequel to the author's best-selling War and Grace tells the stories of eight people and their experiences before, during, and in the years following World War II. Several of them were caught up in the cruel persecution of the Jewish people by the Nazis. Others were involved in the fight to defeat the evil ideology which led to such atrocities. All of these people came to faith in Christ, and from then on their faith was the driving force behind their lives. Remaining faithful to Christ in situations of extreme suffering and trial is the theme of this remarkable book. As a follow-on from Don Stephens highly appreciated War and Grace, we read here of eight more courageous Christians who held firm to their faith in grievous conditions during World War II. May these well-researched pages serve as splendid examples to us of the grace God can give should we too be called upon to face days of serious testing. Faith Cook, author
