This unabridged edition is cleanly formatted for easy reading. 12 point Garamond, 1.25 spacing. Romanian Pastor Richard Wurmbrand spent 14 years in Communist prisons for his belief in Jesus Christ and his public proclamation of his faith. He suffered months of solitary confinement, physical torture, hunger and cold, mental cruelty and brainwashing at the hands of his captors. However, his faith and that of thousands of other believers persisted; faithful souls that had met in homes, basements, in the woods, and secretly preached on street corners knowing well the cost of their actions. This is their story, one of endurance, and courage and relentless belief.

Review:

When you have read this book, pass it to your children. No
generation should miss this story.

(Rob Parsons)

It's a Christian classic. Approach with
prayer. It could change your life.

(Rob Frost)

This book was singularly instrumental in awaking the conscience of the free
world to the horrors experienced by our brothers and sisters behind the iron
curtain. I remember reading the book many years ago and being deeply moved
and convicted. Millions of others were as well.

(Charles W. Colson, Prison Fellowship Ministries)

Tortured for Christ made an impact on my life as a recently converted
teenager in the sixties. I welcome this new edition of Tortured for Christ and pray that its story
will shake many twenty first century Christians out of their complacency
towards those who around the world today are still tortured for their
Christian witness.

(Rev John S. Smith, UK Director, Evangelical Allian)

Book Description:

Neither prison nor torture can frighten the Christians of the Underground Church.
