I confess that when I saw the cover of this book I was not inspired to read it, despite its claim to contain inspiring stories from around the world.

I would never normally pick up a book like this, perversely finding tag lines that make such claims very off-putting. So I read reluctantly, only because I had been asked to review it. My cynicism was challenged. I had been wrong. As I read, I met brothers and sisters, real people from a variety of backgrounds and nationalities, testifying to the work of Christ in their lives.
