Vivid account of faith, cruelty, and spiritual endurance Aug 26, 2007
"Richard and Sabina" was a very interesting and at times truely chilling account of persecution and Christian Faith. One thing that makes the lives of both Wurmbrands so fascinating is the sheer amount of hardship they witnessed or experienced. The fact they found the strenght to forgive their fascist, racist (sometimes other Christians for that matter), and especially their atheistic Communist tormentors is inspiring. The fact that both of them admitted their human flaws makes them easier to relate to. The background for their struggle was the tragedy of an entire nation (Rumania). I would also recommend Richard's book "Tortured for Christ" and Sabina's book "The Pastor's Wife" for reading.

An important, Christ-centered look at the life of an amazing couple! Mar 04, 2006
Jack Cole gives us a deeper look into the lives of these amazing saints, who suffered so much for the name of Christ. I have read everything that Wurmbrand has ever written and I can only say that this book gives us an accurate and fascinating picture of the man and woman who started Voice of the Martyrs Ministry. What a blessing; what a read!

A Slice Of History Jun 18, 2002
The Reverend Richard Wurmbrand liked to say, "Love is the best of ways." Perhaps it was that belief, that hope, that gave Reverend Wurmbrand, and his wife, Sabina, the strength to carry on in the face of brutal persecution in the prisons of Romania by, first, the Nazis and later, the Communists. In Richard and Sabina, poet and biographer, Jack Cole has given us not only a glimpse into the lives of two Jews who converted to Christianity and endured an enormous test of their faith, but also an addition to history's terrible account of the horrors of Nazism and Soviet-era Communism. Their story is worth the telling; well worth the reading. These are courageous people. On Jack Cole's pages, they come alive.
