Breakthrough

The Return of Hope to the Middle East

By: Tom Doyle

Narrated by: Tom Doyle

Length: 5 hrs and 30 mins

Publisher's summary

Hate, killing, tension, and violence fill reports from the Middle East. But there is another story - a Breakthrough.

Tom Doyle, who has a passion for both Muslims and Jews, travels to the Middle East frequently. He reports that in recent years amazing numbers of people in this war-torn region - Muslims and Jews alike - have come to Christ.

In this audio book, you will hear the breathtaking firsthand accounts of what God is doing. You will meet:

Hamsa - a man who drove a tank in Saddam Hussein's army in the Gulf War - has since accepted Christ - and today is a pastor in Baghdad.

Farah - an Iraqi whose husband and three children were accidentally shot and killed by an American soldier at a checkpoint. By meeting another Christian woman with a similar story who had become a believer, eventually Farah gave her life to Christ as well.

Rachel - an Orthodox Jew from Jerusalem - who at a low point in her life met some messianic believers. Though it has cost Rachel her relationship with her family, she has embraced Jesus in her own life. Rachel now practices hospitality by inviting both Jews and Arabs into her home for dinner and fellowship.

These stories, and many more like them, will encourage you that because of Christ, hope is returning to the Middle East. And they will help you to pray more effectively for the Muslim world and all of the Middle East.

One of the best books on the topic!

When I started to listen to this book I assumed that it would be something similar to Tom Doyle's Dreams and visions, which I love.
But this book is different and so good as well.
Not only he shares very powerful testimonies of how Jesus works among Muslims and how they fell in love with Him.
But also he gives a lot of useful information on the history of Islam and the recent events in the Middle East.
He finishes with a very powerful chapter - a challenge to every Christian to be obedient to Jesus's great commission "Go and make disciples of all nations", praying fervently for the nations so desperately needing the Savior!
Thank you Tom Doyle!
May God bless you and your ministry!

A must read/listen for Christians

I loved this book and have listened through it twice in a week. I will probably listen through it again by next week. Excellent narrator, too.

If you've any concerns or curiosities about Islam and Muslims in the world today, what is REALLY going on with them, and what God is doing (not the very limited and lopsided information offered by ALL primary news sources), this is for you.

By the time you finish it, you will be in awe at the disaffection of, and subsequent profound (and exponential) changes happening to, Muslim populations all over the world, and excited at how God is moving and changing lives. You will also see Muslims as humans longing for a relationship with God, not just the usual shallow portrayals seen on the news.

You will not regret getting this book, only that it wasn't twice as long.

Breathtaking glimpse of God's power at work

This book and others like it are not only beautiful & hope-giving, but necessary to those in Western countries who claim to love Christ Jesus. We are called to share in the sufferings of fellow believers, even on the opposite side of the world, & to feel their pain as our own. Apathy & comfort are the greatest enemies to Western Christians. Allow books like this to do their work of producing tenacity & steadfastness of faith and courage for the Gospel.
A STUNNING book of hope, as we are able to read the incredible conversions of those people who might have otherwise been written off as impossible. Thank you, Tom Doyle!

Awesome

Eye-opening and inspiring. I am going to listen to it again for the third time
