Story
Nick Seagrave is a disillusioned business executive who has lost loved ones to tragedy and his family to neglect. Now, at a point of great crisis, he finds himself inexplicably transported to what appears to be another world. Suddenly he's confronted with profoundly clear views of his own past and personality. And he's enabled to see, hear, taste, and smell the realities of both heaven and hell - realities that force him to face dangers and trials far greater than any he's known before.

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.

Story
Is what we do with our money really any of God’s business? Does God mind if we spend money on ourselves? What about debt? Savings? Retirement? How much does God expect us to give? God cares immensely that we manage money with an eternal perspective. Scripture’s teaching on this subject practically screams for our attention. In fact, Jesus says more about money than any other topic—including Heaven and Hell.

Inspiring
Very powerful and inspiring story. This story may be fiction, but the fact that people in many countries go through these very things are not. It makes me feel blessed and humbled that I live in a country where I am allowed to practice my religious beliefs in safety. And perhaps one day I will do more then just pray for my persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ.

Held me Captive
What did you love best about Safely Home?
I loved the fact that it is so close to reality. It made me want to listen all the time to see what happened next.
What did you like best about this story?
This story could have been true and probably in all reality is a true story. I know about the underground church and this book brought more to light. I felt like the characters were real.
Have you listened to any of Steve Sever’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I thought he was a fine reader.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I was moved to the edge of my seat when the police broke in during the secret house meeting. People were made to choose if they would stay or go. Only the devoted disciples of Jesus Christ stayed. The story really changed after that. I was taken off guard.
Any additional comments?
This book was very well written and it was easy to get to know the characters. I highly recommend it.

Timely and riveting.
This book DID rivet me to my seat. I should have been more social with the people I was driving for a 5 hour trip, but once I started listening to this book, I couldn't. I became "one" with this story. And now, with the news of Chen Guangcheng, blind Chinese activist, who is revealing the truth about forced abortions and deaths in China, it makes it even more timely. Religious freedom is something the west takes for granted. This book makes that pretty clear what can happen when those freedoms are gone.

EXCELLENT!!!!
We loved this book! Randy Alcorn draws you into the story and does an incredible job of portraying life and persecution in China. The narrator is superb. Our only criticism of the narration is sometimes his voice gets so soft when doing the voice of the Chinese character that it is hard to understand him (we were listening in the car and "road sounds" interfered). The narrator's ability to do accents is amazing. We highly recommend this book!

This was an amazing read! So eye opening!
Would you consider the audio edition of Safely Home to be better than the print version?
Probably because of the creativity of the reader as he portrayed the characters. I probably wouldn't do that quietly in my brain as I read! Plus, I am an extremely busy person who likes to have books "on the go" to accommodate my multi-tasking lifestyle.
Have you listened to any of Steve Sever’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No... I'd be interested to though:)
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When the main character arrived in heaven and all the dots were connected for him.
Any additional comments?
Thank you for making this excellent book available on audio!
Also, thank you to Randy Alcorn for a wonderful story!

Challenging and Powerful
This fictional book intertwining the lives of an American businessman and his old college roommate in China is a powerful story that will challenge the status quo of American materialism and Christianity. It leaves the Christian reader with a hunger, yearning, and exciting for our true home.

All-time Favorite!
This Book is so well written! There are twists and turns and interesting surprises in this book. It helps the reader understand the underground church in China yet there is an American main character.I love the metaphors and irony in this novel. I read it 10 years ago and now I am reading it again. It makes me rethink everything in my life, and that is a good thing.

Do you support torture and murder?
What did you love best about Safely Home?
Beautifully written, understated story of faith. I have read many stories of great heroes of the Christian faith - and expected this to fit nicely into those norms. I wasn't even sure I wanted to read "another one." This book threw those perceptions out the window. It wasn't "preaching" like a scholar to the average citizens of the world - it was one man, living his faith, with no false delusions and helping his friend to see the strength and confidence available with a deep abiding faith. Heaven is never mentioned by name, but several scenes and conversations take place there. It took me a while to figure it out, but when I did, it felt more real than any other "heaven" scene I had ever imagines or read. It was also very scriptural.
What other book might you compare Safely Home to and why?
It was haunting - and will continue to haunt me as I turn over the conversations and truths presented. I can't think of a book to compare it to - and I have been with Audible 20+ years and read constantly. It is one of a kind. Without stating or hammering on the facts, this book should bring most of us to our knees as we take stock of our own compromised values.
Have you listened to any of Steve Sever’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This is my first tme listening to Steve Sever. I was impressed by the variety of voices, their consistency throughout the book, and his interpretations of the heavenly voices. Marvelous performance.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
It is rather short - only 5-6 hours. I usually prefer books closer to 40 hours, so that once I am vested in characters and plot I don't have to put them down. I listened to it nearly in once sitting. With about 45 minutes to go, I took a break, thought about it, took a deep breath and dove back in.
Any additional comments?
Even for non-readers, especially nominal Christians, or Christians who are desiring a deeper faith, I really recommend this book. The book was dedicated to an Australian Missionary to India, who was burned to death for his faith with his two very young sons while his wife and daughters watched. If you haven't thought about what the money you spend on products "Made in . . . " various corners of the world actually supports, this will certainly open your eyes and quite possibly, change your life.
