Li Quan's father had taught him from childhood to ask this
question every day. He told young Quan, "one day the answer
will be yes, and on that day you must be ready."
Quan stiffened at the shout
behind him. The voice rang with the authority of the Gong An
Ju, the Public Security Bureau. "You meet in the night like
the criminals you are. How dare you defy the law? In three
minutes," Scarbrow said matter-of-factly, "we will shoot every
man and woman—and child—who does not declare himself loyal to
the people rather than the gweilos, foreign devils."
Quan, Ming and Shen clasped each other's hands. Quan breathed
deeply and braced himself.
"Surely this is the day."
American business executive Ben Fielding has no idea
what his brilliant old college roommate is facing
in China. After 20 years he expects to pick up where
they left off. But when they're reunited in China,
the men are shocked at what they discover about each
other. The paths they've walked have shaped
their lives and loyalties in radically different ways.
Thrown together in an hour of encroaching darkness,
watched by unseen eyes, both must make choices that
will determine not only the destinies of two men,
but two families, two nations...and two worlds.
All royalties received by the author and cover
artist will be donated to help the persecuted church
around the world.
God has used all of Randy Alcorn's books in a very powerful way to reach me and bring me back to Christ. Although I am a single mother and have very limited financial means, I want to help in any way I can. I am so thankful for how God used Randy Alcorn to reach me when I was as the bottom, and had some very difficult things occur in my as well as my daughter's lives.
Our lives were nearly taken by my mother-in-law. It was most definitely the worst thing my daughter and I have ever gone through, and I still struggle with it, as it happened very recently. But through reading Randy Alcorn's books, fiction and non-fiction, God really spoke to me.
Right now I am in the middle of Safely Home and Heaven. I have a strong thirst for God and His Word and I am so thankful for this ministry. My daughter and I were close to being brutally killed, yet by the grace of God, I know He has a plan for both of us.
While reading Safely Home, as well as the Bible, I feel your wonderful ministry has turned me back towards God and His purpose for my life. - E. D.
