Introduction : hearts ablaze with courage and conviction -- Adel : amid the horror ... hope -- Purnima : a child imprisoned, a soul set free -- Aida : a voice for the voiceless -- Sabina : a witness of Christ's love -- Tara : life on the run -- Ling : in the school of suffering -- Gladys : a lifeline of forgiveness -- Mai : back to Vietnam ... to preach the gospel.
Eight women from eight very different backgrounds, yet the struggles they each faced rang with eerie similarity. From Pakistan, India, Romania, the former Soviet Union, China, Vietnam, Nepal, and Indonesia, these women shared similar experiences of hardship and persecution--all for their faith in Christ--yet they have emerged from adversity as leaders and heroines.
