Faith Under Fire In Sudan
by Peter Hammond

Africa's Forgotten War

The longest war of the twentieth century in the largest country in Africa, Sudan. Since 1955 the Muslim Arab North has been attacking the Christian Black South. Faith Under Fire In Sudan is the book that lifted the virtual news blackout on the colossal conflict and exposed the scorched earth tactics, systematic terror bombing of civilian targets and the resurgence of the slave trade in Sudan. This book includes firsthand accounts of the horrific atrocities and the inspiring stories of Christian faith under fire.

Despite suffering some of the worst persecution in the world today, many churches in Sudan are experiencing real revival and spectacular growth. This new edition introduces you to some of the unforgettable heroes of Sudan and their legacy.(230 pages with 140 photographs and 7 maps).

"What a story, what courage to obtain it, what determination it displays about the Sudanese Christians who do not succumb to Islam in it's cruelest and worst manifestation in the world today! Would that Christians around the world read this sobering thought and support our brothers and sisters in the Faith in prayer, publicity and practical help. Faith under Fire in Sudan is a vital publication... it deserves a global reading."

Patrick Johnson, WEC Missionary, Author of "Operation World"

"Faith Under Fire in Sudan is an important document for Christians of all denominations at this time in the history of our continent. We are all aware of the chaos and destruction so rampant on the African continent. WHat we are not always aware of is the amount of persecution that is taking place on our doorsteps against those whose crime is believing in the Lord Jesus Christ. We are also often not aware of the great number of brave missionaries and Christian orginisations who are involved amongst these persecuted people as well as in other areas of human devastation where work of relief and compassion is needed. Peter Hammond has done us all a service in focusing our eyes on the Sudan. This long neglected area requires our urgent attention."

- Bishop Frank Retief, Church of England in South Africa, Author of "Tragedy to Triumph"

"How many 'educated' Americans are aware that Sudan is the largest country on the continent of Africa? That, up until the 15th Century, Sudan was a throughly Christianized nation before it fell under the influence of Islam? That it is in the grip of the longest war of the 20th Century? Christians everywhere need to be reading Faith Under Fire in Sudan. It will mobilize them to support the brave missionary movement of Frontline Fellowship in that suffering part of the world - suffering for the sake of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ."

Dr. D. James Kennedy, President of Evangelism Explosion Int'l, Author of "What if Jesus Had never been Born?"

"Faith under Fire in Sudan is the most important and well documented book I have ever read on Sudan, and it encouraged me to pray and work for the Sudanese Christians and for all missions operating in that part of the world. I do believe that no Christian could go to sleep careless after reading this book, be they pastors, politicians, media, businessmen or members of a Christian church. It is a book that cannot be ignored."

Dr. Paul Negrut, Pastor, Emmanuel Baptist Church, Oradea, Romania.

"Congratulations on your new book on Sudan! Already God is using it both to raise awareness and to generate prayer."

Dr. Tokunboh Adayemo, General Secretary of Association of Evangelicals in Africa (AEA)

"Peter Hammond's Faith Under Fire in Sudan is a thrilling account of the power of the Christian Gospel to make Christ's little ones into heroes. Especially Christians in the West need to read this book and to note its message."

Rev. Prof. Dr. Francis Nigel Lee, Queensland Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Brisbane, Australia

'As the Third Millenium approaches, it is becoming more evident that the centuries-old assaulst on Christianity by the forces of Islam is heating up. Nowhere is that more evident than in the Sudan where Christians are being murdered, raped, starved and exterminated all in the name of Islam's god Allah. This history story of the on-going holocaust against Christians in Sudan is thoroughly and graphically documented in Peter Hammond's new book, Faith Under Fire in Sudan. It is shocking, disturbing, but must reading for all."

Morgan Norval, Executive Director, Selous Foundation and author of "Red Star over Africa" and "Death in the Desert".
