But Eastern society operates much differently. In fact- missionaries have found that most Taiwanese people- especially those belonging to the lesser-educated working class- unfalteringly believe in an active spirit world. That being said- I've tried my best to retell these life histories just as their main characters have described them. I've refrained from including personal judgments about the causes of their behavior and experiences”especially in those of a more unusual nature. I hope that you too will refrain from making personal judgments about the men and women you are about to meet just because you may not wholly agree with their theology. I deeply admire the people in this book”and not just because of what they've been through and how they've allowed the Lord to transform them. Over a period of two years- I had opportunities to travel with and minister alongside them. I also had the special privilege of living with Mei Chen for six months- and during this time I found her to possess a Christ-like integrity that is all too rare in the church today. The main characters in the book are among the most consistent- dedicated- self-sacrificing Christians I've ever met. When I'm around them- I find it easy to forget that they've actually gone through everything that you are about to read. On a logistical note- I've used pseudonyms for all the characters within- except for missionaries and pastors- in order to protect their identities. A family tree has been included at the end of the book to help you keep track of names as you read. I hope that the stories in this book will break your heart”as it has mine” for one of the most overlooked- spiritually hungry nations in the world.

Yancey In 1987- an IRA bomb buried Gordon Wilson and his twenty-year-old daughter beneath five feet Religion of rubble. Gordon alone survived. And forgave. He said of the bombers- ' I have lost my daughter- but I bear no grudge . . . I shall pray- tonight and every night- that God will forgive them.' His words caught the media's ears — and out of one man's grief- the world got a glimpse of grace. Grace is the church's great distinctive. It's the one thing the world cannot duplicate- and the one thing it craves above all else — for only grace can bring hope and transformation to a jaded world. In What's So Amazing About Grace? award-winning author Philip Yancey explores grace at street level. If grace is God's love for the undeserving- he asks- then what does it look like in action? And if Christians are its sole dispensers- then how are we doing at lavishing grace on a world that knows far more of cruelty and unforgiveness than it does of mercy? Yancey sets grace in the midst of life's stark images- tests its mettle against horrific 'ungrace.' Can grace survive in the midst of such atrocities as the Nazi holocaust? Can it triumph over the brutality of the Ku Klux Klan? Should any grace at all be shown to the likes of Jeffrey Dahmer- who killed and cannibalized seventeen young men? Grace does not excuse sin- says Yancey- but it treasures the sinner. True grace is shocking- scandalous. It shakes our conventions with its insistence on getting close to sinners and touching them with mercy and hope. It forgives the unfaithful spouse- the racist- the child abuser. It loves today's AIDS-ridden addict as much as the tax collector of Jesus' day. In his most personal and provocative book ever- Yancey offers compelling- true portraits of grace's life-changing power. He searches for its presence in his own life and in the church.

Religion Wounded Spirit- The Frank Peretti This book is the haunting true story of pain Frank Peretti never forgot but never- until recently- Memoir*Religion shared with the world. It's the story of growing up with a medical condition that left him disfigured. A series of surgeries and the slow miracle of answered prayer took care of the deformity- but not the underdeveloped frame or the excruciating reality of being different. And it was for these petty "crimes" that Peretti was prosecuted every day at school-especially in gym class- but also in the halls- on the school grounds- even in his own neighborhood. No wonder he found himself relating to movie monsters who were hated but also feared-and who eventually exacted a bloody revenge on their tormentors!

For that healing is really the heart of this book-the only reality that can break the natural cycle of victimization and abuse. Only in Christ- Peretti reminds- is there hope for the wounded spirits-but that hope is powerful enough to change everything.
