WOW! What a eye-opening book! I had read about some of this elsewhere and of course, seen some of the events in the news. But these interviews are in detail of the suffering and seriousness of the plight of women, especially Christian women in other countries. What they endure and struggle against just to live on a daily basis. They risk their lives and that of their families to be Christians and live a Christian life. In the Muslim countries, their own husbands are their worst enemy and are the greatest threat to their existence. I wish every Christian woman in every country with religous freedom could read this book. We, who have that luxury, to worship as we want, take so much for granted. This book really drives home that point. It also contains a web address of an agency with options to help overseas women in their struggle for independence to worship and live a life knowing Jesus Christ as their Savoir. Their world will never be fear free but at least a chance at a decent life is offered with help.
