Overview

Solitary confinement, mental and physical torture, extreme hunger and bitter cold-these were the daily realities for Pastor Richard Wurmbrand during his combined 14 years of imprisonment in Communist Romania. Richard's crime, like that of thousands of others, was his fervent faith in Jesus Christ and his outspoken witness to the grace and love of God. In Tortured for Christ, Richard shares the inspiring story of his faithful discipleship amid Communist oppression and his powerful witness of Christ's love and forgiveness even before his persecutors.

Known as "the book that shocked the world," Tortured for Christ is a timeless, bestselling account of courageous faith, unbelievable endurance, and inspiring forgiveness that continues to encourage new generations of Christians.4 years of imprisonment in Communist Romania. Richard's


Editorial Reviews

AudioFile

Countless Christians have read this well-known book about the persecution of Christians in Communist Romania. Many more haven’t read it but have it sitting on their shelf in hopes of reading it someday. Thankfully, Alex Rotaru has expertly recorded this modern classic so that everyone can now ‘read’ while they walk or drive. Rotaru’s tempo and pace genuinely reflect the gravity and conviction of the author. It’s as if the listener is sitting at the feet of Reverand Wurmbrand being regaled by stories of his underground church. As Rotaru’s voice quiets at key points, you almost expect the police to bust through the door and cart you away. The listener will remain engaged emotionally and mentally throughout this account of Christian courage.”

Tortured for Christ made an impact on my life as a recently converted teenager in the sixties. I welcome this new edition of Tortured for Christ and pray that its story will shake many twenty-first-century Christians out of their complacency towards those who around the world today are still tortured for their Christian witness.”

Prison Fellowship Ministries Charles W. Colson

This book was singularly instrumental in awaking the conscience of the free world to the horrors experienced by our brothers and sisters behind the Iron Curtain. I remember reading the book many years ago and being deeply moved and convicted. Millions of others were as well.”
