With God in Solitary Confinement

The writings of Richard Wurmbrand are among the most prized in my library. This book is no exception. It offers a rare and unvarnished look at the nature of authentic and triumphant faith. Wurbrand's potent intellect and mystical insights have been forged together in a crucible of suffering. The result is a shining faith and deep wisdom that reflects the true beauty of of the living Christ. It is a living beauty that goes beyond doctrines, controversies, and all the other aspects of religion that sometimes divide Christians. He shows what a human life can look like when only Christ is left.

Your life will be changed if you read this book from cover to cover. My husband and I read it and cried, laughed, and fell in love with Pastor Wurmbrand (now deceased). What a powerful ministry he and his wife, Sabina had on this earth! The Communists were powerful enemies but not as powerful as Christ's redeeming love! Wonderful little book, I have read it time and again and refer to it often for inspiration.

This man is just amazing and the things he suffered at the hands of the Romanian Communists were alarming and yet he triumphed over them all. Fascinating, twisted and absolutely delightful this book is one you will never forget!

Wurmbrand is a living epistle. Like Job he lost everything, cried out to God with brutal honesty and found nothing lacking even in the most dire circumstances imaginable. I could only read one "sermon" a day... you have to let them soak in and still there's more with each reading. Not a book that will hit the best seller list today, even Christian best seller lists, but it should.
