Well, midweek mix-up is a bit late this week. I’ve had a full schedule lately in uploading new book reviews, enjoying spring time, and writing the September newsletter. Here I am now, with a few new books for you to peruse!
Reading this week:
Tortured for Christ by Richard Wurmbrand
Progress: Finished!
Oh, this book. I love it, and at the same time I hate it. It’s…powerful. Through Richard’s eyes, we see the harsh reality of what it means for many Christians in restricted nations to never be able to know—from one day or the next—what their future is going to look like. What it’s like to always hide—even from your own pastor at times!—that you’re a believer. Richard suffered much under the Communists—when the USSR had control of Romania—and while he doesn’t go into a lot of detail, he shares enough that you can understand where he’s coming from.
