Killing Christians: Living the Faith Where Its Not Safe to Believe

Could you retain your faith even if it meant losing your life? Your familys lives?To many Christians in the Middle East today, a momentary, light affliction means enduring only torture instead of martyrdom. The depth of oppression Jesus followers suffer is unimaginable to most Western Christians. Yet, it is an everyday reality for those who choose faith over survival in Syria, Iran, Egypt, Lebanon, and other countries hostile to the Gospel of Christ. In Killing Christians, Tom Doyle takes readers to the secret meetings, the torture rooms, the grim prisons, and even the executions that are the calling of countless MuslimsturnedChristians.Each survivor longs to share with brothers and sisters on the outside what Christ has taught them. Killing Christians is their message to readers who still enjoy freedom to practice their faith. None would wish their pain and suffering on those who do not have to brave such misery, but the richness gained through their remarkable trials are deliveredoften in their own wordsthrough this book. The stories are breathtaking, the lessons soulstirring and renewing. Killing Christians presents the dead serious work of expanding and maintaining the Faith.When youre looking for reallife accounts of 21st Century believers whose lives are literally at stake for their beliefs, it demands the credibility of a man who has the smell of the front lines of the battlefield on his clothes because he was there yesterday and will be back there tomorrow. Im proud to say my friend Tom Doyle is that man.Jerry B. Jenkins, Novelist & Biographer
