God's Smuggler

Product Information

I have always said that if, an uneducated Dutchman —you know I never officially graduated from high school or Bible school— can do these things, then anyone can do them.

There were a couple things I was a bit skeptical/unsure about, and I don’t know if I agree with absolutely everything.

I have heard about this book for most of my life and, while I didn't doubt the quality of the content, I expected it to be hard to read.

It was a great story, but there were a few times that it felt like I heard that already, as he had the same adventure in different countries.

The greater part of this story is about Andrew’s travels behind the iron curtain smuggling Bibles, preaching, and encouraging the Christians. He signed up on a government-controlled Communist tour to Czechoslovakia, the only legal way to be in the country, during which he left the tour to meet with local Christian groups. But he pressed on, believing the work was worth the risk, and seeing God do some pretty amazing things along the way. There are also some references to filthy talk and nasty allusions made by some young people at a later date, but again, the focus is on God's redemption.
