Leave Nothing Left: Serving God & the Chinese House Church($9.99Value)

Description

“It was late at night when I finally arrived at a small home in mainland China. Many Chinese Christians had gathered to pray and worship in this secret house church. I was excited to preach and encourage them, but also exhausted from the long travel. Suddenly, I heard a voice cry out, "Teacher Barnabas, we have to run!" I looked toward the front door as three secret police officers forced it open and stormed in, just a few meters away from me.We ran. No time to grab anything. Not even shoes. I ran barefoot. I raced into total darkness. I didn’t know where I was, and I couldn’t see anything around me. I could hear the footsteps of the secret police behind me, so I ran even faster. But I wasn’t scared. When I decided to serve the house churches in China, I knew someday this would happen. I just didn’t expect it so soon.” How does faith flourish in the midst of persecution? How does hope and joy overcome the darkness of oppression? What compels someone to risk their freedom and life to reach the lost and serve God and His Church? Leave Nothing Left is the story of Barnabas Young. Raised an orphan in a small fishing village on the coast of Hong Kong. Forced to work and steal at six-years-old and endure constant beatings. Determined never to become a Christian. Called and transformed by God as a teenager. Barnabas Young has served God and the Chinese House Church for over twenty years. He has ministered and taught across China to thousands of persecuted Christians in homes, caves, and fields; in heat and freezing cold; in suffering and trials. He founded the House Church Ministry in 2010 to expand support for the Chinese House Church movement.
