You cannot understand China without meeting heroes like Samuel Lamb! In an age when secularism and materialism numb the human spirit, China's amazing Christians demonstrate the power of living faith. In 1950 China's Christians numbered about a million. Today, estimates range between 30 and 70 million! How did this body of believers grow so rapidly under atheism and materialism? Bold as a Lamb is the true story of Pastor Samuel Lamb. Imprisoned for more than twenty years for preaching the Gospel, he became the beloved secret pastor to hundreds of fellow inmates. After his release in 1978, he built a phenomenal "house church" congregation of more than a thousand. Soon, however, he became the special target of those determined to destroy the mushrooming house church movement in China. His church was closed and his ministry tools were confiscated. Yet this man remains undaunted, standing boldly -- and with spiritual grace, against fierce opposition. This is the fascinating, eye-opening ac

This is an excellent biography of Samuel Lamb, one of the greatest leaders of China's house churches who suffered twenty years of imprisonment for his Christian faith under the Communist regime. Reading what Lamb had to go through and how his faith sustained him, one cannot but feel greatly inspired and at the same time greatly humbled. So often when we follow Jesus, what we seek and expect from Him are blessings and a relatively peaceful and comfortable life. But for Lamb and many others like him, they understood following Jesus to mean taking up the cross and laying down their lives for Him. During his imprisonment, Lamb experienced the presence of God in a very personal and profound way. The many scriptures he has committed to memory helped to sustain him when he could not own or have access to a Bible. There is much to instruct us reading this biography of Samuel Lamb. Highly recommended!
