review 1: Two Iran women are imprisoned for their belief in Jesus and for handing out bibles in public.Their story is uplifting as they found ways in prison to spread their message. The horrors of a middle eastern prison are described here as well as the love and compassion these two women felt for everyone arriving there.In the meantime the Voice Of America and other organizations found out about their arrest and began to demand their release. This also tells how they felt after being freed. They now live here in America.This book has a very strong Christian theme. I could not help but admire their courage and their refusal to back down.
review 2: This book was so inspiring, encouraging, convicting and though-provoking. I am still thinking a lot about the freedoms we ha
... moreve in America and how far I would go for my faith. These two women could have easily avoided and ended all their physical suffering by denying their faith, and yet they consistently insisted that life without Christ was worthless to them. It was a convicting reminder to me about where my priorities, joy, strength, and assurance should be. Also how God did so many amazing things through them in prison was encouraging and inspirational. This book was well worth my time and I highly recommend it. less

My take-away: pray for believers who are right now imprisoned.
