Tortured for Christ
Tortured for Christ | Richard Wurmbrand
4 posts | 6 read | 1 reading | 1 to read
This classic story of amazing faith in shocking circumstances has been updated for a new generation. Its message remains urgent and relevant: thousands of Christians are still persecuted and tortured around the world today, suffering solely for their belief in Jesus Christ. Richard Wurmbrand endured months of solitary confinement, years of periodic physical torture, constant suffering from hunger and cold, the anguish of brainwashing and mental cruelty. His captors lied to his wife, saying he was dead. Yet he went on to tell the West the truth about Christianity behind the Iron Curtain. Millions of people have been touched by this story, and thirty years after its first publication it is now updated with a new foreword by Rob Frost, a picture section and details of the final years of Wurmbrand's life.

Current family read aloud ~ I'm always encouraged when I'm done reading and intriguing questions send us to the internet to learn more. (I only read the foreword today. Imagine how their brains will be stimulated when they hear the rest of Richard's story!)

Desha Hi @Princess-Kingofkings! I see you have a VOM map...I do also! 😊 This summer our women‘s book group at church is reading testimonials...so we are doing Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus and Amy Carmichael and The Insanity of God A True Story of Faith Resurrected by Nik Ripken.

This is one of my all time favorite books. Richard Wurmbrand's experience in Communist Romania is harrowing, but inspirational at the same time! I'm going to enjoy reading this for the first time in forever!
