As World War II raged, millions of men and women confronted
injury, destruction, separation from home and loved ones, chaos,
and death. These challenges and traumas and many others forced an
entire generation of everyday heroes to take stock of their lives.
And in the process, many turned to God in ways they never had
before.
In "Faith Under Fire," you'll experience scenes of astonishing
bravery, moments of heart-breaking loss, and a pervasive sense of
love for God, neighbor, and country that was strong enough to
transcend denominational and national differences, inspiring
selfless acts of courage and compassion under the worst of
circumstances.
From the Catholic chaplain who offered mercy among the carnage
of Iwo Jima, to the Pentecostal boy who was saved from an incoming
shell by the voice of God calling his name, to the young wife
praying that her husband would survive life in a concentration
camp, to the Tuskegee Airman who fought both totalitarianism and
racism, these stories reveal the power of faith that sustained
these heroes when there was nowhere else to turn.
Award-winning author Steve Rabey presents more than twenty
firsthand accounts of faith under pressure, many of them
illustrated with war-time photos, letters, and journal entries. At
a time when many who lived through these trying times are dying,
their stories live on, passing on a legacy of faith and fortitude
to future generations.
