About this ebook

Could you retain your faith even if it meant losing your life? Your family’s lives?

To many Christians in the Middle East today, a “momentary, light affliction” means enduring only torture instead of martyrdom. The depth of oppression Jesus followers suffer is unimaginable to most Western Christians. Yet, it is an everyday reality for those who choose faith over survival in Syria, Iran, Egypt, Lebanon, and other countries hostile to the Gospel of Christ. InKilling Christians, Tom Doyle takes readers to the secret meetings, the torture rooms, the grim prisons, and even the executions that are the “calling” of countless Muslims-turned-Christians.

Each survivor longs to share with brothers and sisters “on the outside” what Christ has taught them. Killing Christians is their message to readers who still enjoy freedom to practice their faith. None would wish their pain and suffering on those who do not have to brave such misery, but the richness gained through their remarkable trials are delivered—often in their own words—through this book. The stories are breathtaking, the lessons soul-stirring and renewing. Killing Christians presents the dead serious work of expanding and maintaining the Faith.

Ratings and reviews

Amazing read!! Its been awhile since I have been so immersed and captivated by a book other than the Bible. I felt I was in the moment of every individual journey anticipating what is going to happened next. I leterally could not put the this book down for very long and I am not an avid reader. It takes real people in unbelievable situation stated in this book and cause us to answer some tough question of our own faith but also encourages us to the great calling of the Gospel. This book certainly ignited in me again an extreme passion for my first love -Jesus.

This book is a must read!! God is Good. Jesus is Lord

Sobering read but reveals courageous Christians - need our prayers.
