The exciting tale of Brother Andrew's life of smuggling bibles into Communist countries.
In the years before Andrew van der Bijl took the name Brother Andrew, he was no stranger to adventure and intrigue - in fact, he craved it. As a young lad, he was forever getting into mischief, and even risked his life during the Nazi occupation of Holland by setting off fireworks in the faces of German soldiers!
Years later, God used this same thirst for danger and excitement as Andrew smuggled Bibles into Communist countries to help the persecuted, underground church and bring light to darkened hearts. Enemy lines and hostile borders mean nothing to God or to Andrew, who still works to assist the persecuted church across the world through the organization he founded, Open Doors.

I have been delighted with the books received to date, in particular those recently received for my grandsons. And I can request deliveries to me or others as appropriate at the time.

Easy but great read. Exciting and adventurous - a real page turner and inspiring.
The only problem was at the end of the story, where it says 'Holy Ghost' instead of 'Holy Spirit' - this was a bit confusing.

Super set of books looking at the lives of Christian heroes and heroines. Exactly what I wanted and inspiring for the younger readers as well.
