About this ebook

Not Even ISIS Can Scare Them Off

Followers of Christ need to relearn what it means to stand courageously for their faith rather than merely survive in a climate of fear. Instead of motivating believers to action, today’s headlines appear to be paralyzing them. Standing in the Fire demonstrates the church triumphant through the lives of people who stood strong and didn’t run away in the face of overwhelming danger. These Middle Eastern heroes of faith fear God more than terrorist groups like ISIS. Supported by Tom Doyle’s commentary on events, the stories included show how these Christians are not living as victims, but victors in Christ.

This was a great challenge to me as a follower of the Christ, as I read stories that are told here. I can see clearly that God is at work in the Middle East right now in a miraculous way. The belivers in those area face grave danger but do not back down. Rather they walk in faith in Him and are living gloriously. They fould peace and love in Christ and they are determined not to lose them. I cannot say i have similar situations but i know i face spritual attack everyday and I have to walk with Jesus. I cannot afford to lose my life in Him! This book is like an extended version of Acts!!

I found the book "Standing in the fire" while browsing through devotional apps on you version, I bought on line asap and finished the book on the 2nd day, I couldn't put it down, my faith and my life has been totally impacted and challenged as well, I read, cried, prayed and read again!.. I really want to do your mission trip and get to meet some of the courageous and bold brothers and sisters in Christ mentioned in this book.
