Joan Brown

Liberian Son Joan Brown

"Bishop Kofi, we have come for your head." Ed Kofi hid beneath a wooden bench on the cement floor of the church he founded. He prayed the rebels would not find him as they searched and taunted him, banging their machetes against the pine pews. A compelling story from start to finish-harrowing and heroic. Read of this present-day Paul, the churches he planted and the perils he endured during the years of the Liberian civil war. Brown paints scenes of heart-stopping moments... narrowly escaping execution by border-crossing militia, rebels on the move toward his orphanage, and the faithful resolve of a man and his fellow church members who trust in their God.
