These are the stories you haven't heard on the news. These are the
people you will never forget. In the midst of never-ending debates,
protests, riots, suicide bombings, and broken peace initiatives,
one man came to make a difference. Previously known for his
determination to deliver Bibles behind the Iron Curtain, Brother
Andrew has spent the last thirty years on a very different quest.
Traveling to Lebanon, the West Bank, Gaza, and Israel, Brother
Andrew has sought out church leaders and urged them not to flee the
violence but to stay and strengthen their congregations to become a
force for change. His mission: to bring hope to the believers
caught in the crossfire of the most volatile region on earth. "This
is a book that invites applause and criticism. It will edify and
offend, fostering healthy and much-needed discussion and debate in
the Western Church."-Randy Alcorn, author, Safely Home "This man's
courage is not just a case of bravado on steroids."-Charisma
magazine Brother Andrew began taking Bibles to Christians behind
closed borders in 1955. That work has since developed into Open
Doors International. He is the author and coauthor of numerous
books, including God's Smuggler and The Narrow Road. Al Janssen has
cowritten or authored more than twenty-five books. He is chairman
of the board for Open Doors (USA) and is director of communications
for Open Doors International.
More than fifty years ago, a reporter for Guideposts magazine set
out to gather information about a strange new occurrence happening
all over the country. John Sherrill, a skeptic when it came to
speaking in tongues and the baptism with the Holy Spirit, was
determined to retain his objectivity while digging out the facts.
What he found would change his life. With more than 2.5 million
copies sold, this classic work is the story of one man's journey
from skepticism to a life-changing relationship with God. Filled
with historical and biblical accounts of speaking in tongues, this
is also the deeply personal and moving story of how you, too, can
walk in the power of the Spirit day by day. Now includes a new
epilogue and update on how to lean on the Holy Spirit for unity in
an increasingly divisive world.
With over ten million copies sold, God's Smuggler has thrilled and
inspired readers for more than forty years. It tells the true story
of how a young Dutchman risked his life to bring faith and hope to
believers behind the Iron Curtain. Now updated with new material
from interviews with Brother Andrew, he tells of his adventures as
his ministry took him to the Middle East, Africa, China, Israel,
Pakistan and other places of great danger and extraordinary
opportunities. With new relevance, and at such a poignant time for
persecuted Christians, this book is set to inspire a whole new
generation of readers.

for his contacts in the underground church, Brother Andrew decided
he could not return to Eastern Europe. He quietly turned his

What happens when a Muslim, born and brought up in a Muslim family
in an Islamic country, converts to Christianity? In this unique
book, Brother Andrew describes the personal, cultural, spiritual
and life-threatening challenges that they face. Most of the book is
written as a thrilling novel, tracing the intertwined lives of a
small group of believers in an unnamed Islamic country. The story
becomes all the more fascinating as we realise that the stories are
all based on the actual experiences of real people Andrew meets on
a regular basis. SECRET BELIEVERS is the most topical, eye-opening
Christian book of 2007.
Christianity faces its greatest challenge yet - the rapid spread of
Islam in almost every country. The purpose of this book is to alert
leadership, to inform the Church and others, and to inspire God's
people to action. It relates what Islam is doing, why this is so,
and how God is responding. It shows how God's people may
successfully face this challenge with confidence. The author,
Stuart Robinson, was formerly the Senior Pastor of Crossway in
Melbourne. Before that he worked for 14 years in South Asia where
he pioneered church planting among Muslims. He now travels
extensively as a speaker at conferences. He is the author of
several books including: - Defying Death: Zakaria Botross - Apostle
to Islam; The Prayer Of Obedience; The Challenge Of Islam. He
graduated from the Baptist Theological College of Queensland, the
University of Queensland, the Melbourne College of Divinity and
Fuller Theological Seminary. Stuart was born in Brisbane and is
married to Margaret. They have three married children.
