Summary

The dramatic autobiography of one of China's dedicated, courageous, and intensely persecuted house church leaders. This is the gripping story of how God took a young, half-starved boy from a poor village in Henan province and placed him on the front line for Jesus, in the face of impossible odds. Instead of focusing on the many miracles or experiences of suffering, however, Yun prefers to focus on the character and beauty of Jesus.

Interspersed with his personal account are contributions from his wife, Deling, made mostly during her husband's frequent periods of imprisonment. You will remember where you were the first time you read this life story. It's a watershed book that will turn the reader to prayer and praise. It deserves comparison with past classics such as Tortured for Christ by Richard Wurmbrand, or the Life of Watchman Nee.

What a testimony!

Honest and thorough report of the blessings of obedience and trials of disobedience. Yet even in disobedience Gid worked all things together for good! Praise God for the “Heavenly Man”.

Incredible

This book is amazing !! It had me in tears so many times and it’s filled my heart with joy too. What faithful, committed and dedicated people of God! God bless Brother Yun, his family and all others who cared not for their own lives, even unto death but lived yielded to God with humbleness of heart. May God help us here in the west to truly live for him wholeheartedly.

True Account of how God uses His obedient servants

This is a compelling account of one ordinary man's walk with God. He honestly describes how God has used him in His service to fulfill the Great Commission on China and now worldwide. A great read, well told, and (at times) it moved me to tears.

Amazing, inspirating and deeply challenging

This is a truly eye opening insight into how God is at work today. At times its horrific to hear of how Yun has been persecuted for his faith, but his love for Jesus and the miracles that he has experienced make this an utterly fascinating and challenging story. Wow!

What a testimony..an emotional book on persecution

This was a riveting testimony on a families journey of faith. certainly not all roses but all worth it. May the Lord richly bless Brother Yun and his family. I found myself searching for events where he will be sharing his testimony near me. we need such reminders of the walk of faith and the often high price some pay to follow Jesus. May you be rewarded richly for your labour of love

Absolutely brilliant!

What faith and strength brother yun had in the Lord. His life journey for the Gospel, brought tears to my eyes, and made me grateful, to be born and living where I am in the UK.
His testimonies of the miracles God did for him, brought more tears, but they were of joy! God is a good and faithful Father to His children, and all things work for good for those who are the called for His purposes. An truly amazing book to listen to or read, it helps to strengthen your own faith, it will also change your perception in life, faith and hope!
