"In this life, I have lost. I lost my husband and best friend. My children lost their father. But Stephen didn't lose his life. He found it." Early one morning, just down the street from the local mosque, gunshots shattered the silence. A young American lay in a pool of blood, murdered by al-Qaeda extremists.

When God called Emily and Stephen Foreman to bring the gospel to a Muslim nation where Christianity was illegal, they knew they were being called to a life of sacrifice. "We died before we came here" was their common refrain.

Emily, left with four children and an undying calling to reach the Muslim world, recounts in this memoir the powerful story of God's work through a life poured out for Christ. Stephen Foreman's death was not the beginning, nor was it the end. And he did not die in vain. This promise echoes through the book's minutes and far beyond, in the hearts and lives of countless individuals touched by a man who lived his life as though it wasn't his own.

Emily presents her life and that of Stephen's in a very open and honest way. It's wonderful to see that God uses flawed people to do great things in this world. This book encourages us to live life to the full and with a heart of love for all people.

Well done...

The Kingdom of God needs more co-workers who are willing to give it all for Jesus sake. This family is a friend-of-a-friend so I could see in my mind's eye and feel in my heart this story. Wonderfully challenging and compelling. Heart-rending and uplifting at the same time. So very well written and narrated! I loved it!
