The Gospel in Bonds
The Gospel in Bonds: The True Story of a Courageous Preacher Imprisoned in the Soviet Gulags for His Faith | Georgi Vins
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
Georgi Vins, a Baptist pastor living in the U.S.S.R., was 37-years-old the first time he was imprisoned for his faith in a Soviet prison camp. He left behind his wife, his children, and his church. Over the course of thirteen years, Pastor Vins spent a total of eight years in the gulags. But in the pages of this book, you won't read about a man who felt sorry for himself or who wallowed in the misery of his sufferings. Rather, you will hear the true stories of believers whose faith in Jesus Christ took preeminence in their lives and who allowed nothing, not even a Communist government, to take away their faith and their hope. Threaded through The Gospel in Bonds is an intricately woven theme of love for God's Word and faith in the Gospel, even in the midst of severe punishment and deprivation. May the pages of this book give you insight into the mind of a man uniquely used by God and encourage you to an ever-closer walk with the Savior, Jesus Christ

I read about Georgi Vins in another book about Christian missions and was intrigued so I got his book. Amazing to read about life in Russia back then and being arrested for preaching about Jesus. He spent 8 years in prison for his faith before being kicked out of the country. Amazing and inspiring life of faithfulness.
