About this listen

The electrifying true testimony of Franz Hasel, dramatically narrated with original cinematic score.

Pacifist Franz Hasel was drafted into one of Hitler’s elite troops to build bridges at the front lines. Just before he was sent deep into Russia - where all but seven of his 1,200 man unit would die - he secretly discarded his gun, fearing that, as the company sharpshooter, he might be tempted to kill.

In Russia he faced a new problem: how to warn the local Jews before the SS got to them. Back at home, Franz’s wife, Helene, and their four children were fighting their own battles. Pressured to join the Nazi party, she announced, “I belong to the party of Jesus Christ.”

“Tomorrow night your children will be taken from you unless you join the party,” Herr Doering screamed.

And she had another secret. One day, the gestapo knocked at her door. “Are you hiding a Jew?” they demanded.

This is the true, soul-soaring story of one desperate family who chose to be faithful whatever the cost, and found refuge in the shadow of the Almighty. May you always be found faithful as you stand for the truth whatever trials you may be facing.

About the audio publisher: Jesus’ rich and resonant voice could be heard in stories and songs, echoing in the hills and valleys around his home as he ministered to all. Following his example, we believe in sharing the gospel in story and song as a memorable and effective way to reach hearts.

Great Story - But Audio Experience Takes Away

As most have shared, this story is wonderful and I am inspired while my faith is strengthened hearing it for the first time.

However…Audible, I am disappointed you allowed this to get past your audio standards. I understand having a musical score might add to the drama, as it does for a well d

Great book!

The only thing I would change is the song at the end of each chapter. It is a nice song but when it first played I thought the book was over. It became monotonous. A little too long to play over and over at the end of each chapter.
Thank you for the book! It’s a wonderful reminder in todays crazy world that God still takes care of His people and we need to obey no matter what.

Very inspiring story

The music and announcement at the end of each chapter greatly detracts. Once, at the very end would be ok, but on with each chapter. That needs to be deleted. The story itself, though is compelling and outstanding. The narrator also does a great job.

Amazing story

Amazing story of how God is always there for us. When we think that all Hope is gone, he always comes through. The only thing I did not like about this audible version is that the music in the background is a bit distracting and sometimes too loud for the talking. It makes it hard to hear.

What a faith building story

Wow I listened to this one in three days. Some parts were a bit intense so I had to put it down. Shamefully, I have never really considered what the German families were going through during this time. It’s heartbreaking on all sides. This story is truly inspirational to stand by your faith.

A Thousand Shall Fall review

I absolutely love this story! I have read the physical book more than 10 times. I got the Audible book to be able to listen to the book while I had to be doing other things. While I still thoroughly enjoy the amazing story, the music playing during the narration was very distracting and too loud. It made it hard to hear the reader clearly. This is an tremendous story! I wish they would just take out the background music.
