About this book
The founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949 turned a brand new page of Chinese history. For Wang Mingdao, this was an extraordinary time. Living under the harsh conditions and cruel realities of the Japanese occupation, he fought a fierce spiritual battle between life and death and won a glorious victory. Brothers and sisters who deeply loved the Lord offered their heart-felt thanksgiving for him and the precious lessons they learned from his struggle and victory. But soon, a new and tougher battle was dawning on him. The founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949 turned a brand new page of Chinese history. For Wang Mingdao, this was an extraordinary time.

Brothers and sisters who deeply loved the Lord offered their heart-felt thanksgiving for him and the precious lessons they learned from his struggle and victory. But soon, a new and tougher battle was dawning on him.
We follow his personal journey set against the backdrop of the rise of communism throughout a changing China and the gradual exertion of pressure upon religious freedom. Christians were urged to embrace a liberalism which robbed the Gospel message of its power. Wang Mingdao resisted any such dilution of the faith.
