The account of a missionary in Turkey and the blessings and horrors
that accompany his service
Martin de Lange was happily married, enjoying his job as a
photographer in South Africa's police force. But stirred with
passion for the spiritually lost in Turkey, he uprooted his little
family and headed north to Turkey. A land where, he discovered,
people ask obtrusive questions, the government watches every move,
and men think his wife is a prostitute.
Over a period of fifteen years, Martin gradually became fluent
in Turkish, set up Bible distribution networks, and pastored a
growing fellowship. Turkey took its toll though. Marriage
difficulties, police harassment, and loneliness led both Martin and
his wife, Petro, to crises of faith. As threats mounted, Martin was
faced with a difficult choice: Head for the safety of home or live
where God has led them. Finally they were blacklisted and forced to
leave. Martin and Petro now travel the world, raising prayer and
support for the Turkish church.
"I'm always challenged by people who loved the truth enough to
live it, who 'did not love their lives so much as to shrink from
death.' These brothers did that, and their story needs to be
heard."
--Simon Guillebaud, author of Dangerously Alive
"We urgently need books about Turkey, one of the largest, most
unreached nations in the world. Martin and his family have served
Jesus in the country of Turkey for fifteen years, and their book
deserves your attention. Please get extra copies to give to your
friends. Use it to mobilize urgently needed prayer and action for
Turkey."
--George Verwer, founder of Operation Mobilisation
