Resumen del Editor

As a child, Petr Jasek watched Soviet tanks roll through the streets of his village in Czechoslovakia, taking the country by force and subjecting it to decades of Communist oppression. Petr grew up in the underground church and benefited from financial help and Bibles smuggled in to his family.

As an adult living in the free Czech Republic, Petr chose to begin serving persecuted Christians - especially in Islamist hotspots in Africa and the Middle East. In 2015, he was arrested in Sudan, convicted as a war criminal, and sentenced to life in prison, where he was forced to share a group cell with ISIS terrorists.

The true story of what God did in and through Petr has already inspired tens of thousands around the world. Now, for the first time, Petr tells the whole story.

The importance of praying for our persecuted brothers and sisters

I was deeply moved by this story which I found extremely impactful and inspiring. I’m encouraged that even in the face of adversity, we can count on God to be our refuge and strength, a very present help in time of trouble.

GoD is Good!

This story was so inspiring! Petr you are truly doing God’s work by spreading the Gospel even though your trials. I couldn’t imagine going through half the things Petr went through, & then to not lose Faith is simple Amazing. Thank you Petr for sharing your story.

Gods Hands

Gods hands in his life although he could not see it stood out to me. This is a proof to me that God knows my trials and afflictions, and has a purpose for putting me through them. Also, Gods bigger picture is to have me focus on others-not me. I praise, my God.

Inspirational

Could I do what Petr did, I don't think so. But, with God all things are possible.

This book is a challenging book for believers

This book is a very encouraging and challenging book for any true believer . the book speak about a type of Christianity that is foreign to the American church experience. where Christian's aren't over preoccupied fighting for freedom of religion- but boldly live the principles of Christianity, religious freedom or not . where Christians are willing to suffer for being able to share Christ without any constitutions to protect them . its contrast shows us how religious freedom instead of producing and aggressive and bold Christianity, has produce religious wimps!

He suffered as few in the west ever will

A remarkable story of one innocent man’s story of unimaginable hardship and the faithfulness of God. I felt almost as if I was with him in those prisons: enduring the abuse of the ISIS inmates, being lied to by guards and abused for the slightest infractions, but sharing the gospel of hope whenever opportunity came. Truly inspiring and a revealing look at how God works and uses the worst situations to draw people to him.

A much needed dose of perspective

This book was compelling, interesting, and a bit stressful, though it is replete with scripture and encouragement. Not showy or overly dramatic, this is a straightforward telling of the story of one man in a frightening and unjust situation. Even so, this story represents the uncounted mass of the unsung, who aren’t connected or known about.

Humbled

God requires great suffering from some of his people while we in the west live in ease. How often we fail to remember the prisoners as if in prison with them. A wonderful story of the grace of God in great difficulty!

tremendous story of Truth and Hope

very encouraging story of faith and how God takes care of us in the roughest of times.

Encouraging and amazing story

I loved hearing Petr’s amazing account of his imprisonment and gaining of a deeper understanding of Jesus and what persecution means for the believer. It gives me encouragement that, if I am ever called upon to suffer for Christ, there is a peace and joy that passes all understanding and a relationship with our Lord that only those who pass through that valley can comprehend.

Thank you for telling of His faithfulness even in suffering.
