After a series of experiences revealed to him the extent and nature
of religious persecution in the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc
in the 1960s, Michael Bourdeaux resolved to enable the voices of
believers to be heard by the wider world. In 1969, he founded
Keston College, an institution dedicated to the study of religion
in communist countries and the provision of information about
churches and the pressures and threats facing Christians there.
Over the next three decades, Keston's work of defending religious
liberty in the Soviet Union was hugely controversial; Michael and
his colleagues faced political opposition, while also providing
invaluable insight and advice to British government and leaders
including Harold Wilson and Margaret Thatcher. In the days before
the misleading concept of 'fake news' the information provided by
Keston was seen in many quarters as a bastion of truth and
integrity. Its unique work was recognised internationally when
Michael was awarded the Templeton Prize in 1984. One Word of Truth
recounts both Michael's story and that of Keston College. It is an
inspirational account of a remarkable life, a peerless institution,
and the heroism of countless men and women who proved by their
lives that the Christian faith is stronger than dehumanising
atheist ideology.
