In 1903, Luella Miner published this record of the Boxer uprising in China during the summer of 1900 when thousands of Christian missionaries and Chinese converts to Christianity were literally butchered for their faith in Jesus Christ.
Relying largely upon first person accounts of survivors, the stories of godly heroism, sacrifice, and Christian love grace the pages of this book. The stories include those of weaker brethren who succumbed to the Boxers' demands that they renounce their Christian faith. God used this as a tool for winnowing from His church in China the chaff of unbelief. The church that emerged from the difficulty was stronger than when it began.
Some stories dramatically demonstrate a spirit of forgiveness that can be explained only by the love of Christ. In one instance, in the days following the murder of his daughter by a particular Boxer, a Christian father refused to name the murderer in the hope of someday leading him to the Savior. A good book for anyone wanting to understand how faith in Christ changes lives.
