This book was incredible! It gives a detailed account of the life of Iraqis, especially Christians in Iraq during the rise of terrorism. The book looked at the development of Iraq, the time of Saddam Hussein and beyond. It ended with accounts of Iraq in 2015.
This journalist wrote down the accounts of those she encountered who were persecuted and displaced. She made friends along the way and found herself in some potentially dangerous situations. Her dedication to getting a true and honest story of the persecution of Christians is brilliant.
I knew the evil of terrorism but this book made it feel more personal for some reason. Maybe because the author writes her accounts in such a way that makes you feel like you are part of them. My heart was stirred in prayer and desire to help those Christians in Iraq. I was inspired by how brave they were to stay in their own country. My mind was blown by all the endured for the sake of the gospel.
This is a great read. It is worth the time.

I received a copy of this book at no charge from the publisher for the purpose of an honest review.
