A LIVING SACRIFICE:
The life story of Allen Yuan
By Lydia Lee. Sovereign World/Open Doors
256 pages. £8.99. ISBN 1 85240 293 8

There is much for us to learn from the suffering Church. Lydia Lee brings a close-up view of Allen Yuan, described as one of the founding fathers of China's house church movement, and his family. This man of God suffered years of imprisonment.

His wife, whose winsome smile is striking in all the photographs, bears the hardship of often not knowing how he is, and of caring for the family on her own in trying circumstances. There are spiritual lessons in every chapter.
