Description: This is an incredible story of a powerful man of God. From his non-churched childhood to his first meeting with God through a Salvation Army service in Prague, Czechoslovakia, to his courtship, marriage and later arrest by the communists, you are drawn into the life of this man empowered by God. Josef Korbel's storytelling style of writing will not allow you to remain a mildly interested reader. Ten years of imprisonment did not leave Brigadier Korbel a defeated and scarred man. Through miracle after miracle, God's presence during these horrible years, helped strengthen and mold him into a champion for God. If you are looking to read a book of triumph, this is one you must read. It is a deceptively easy read. Once you begin reading, you'll not be able to put it down. A personal note: I and my family had the pleasure of knowing Brigadiers Josef and Erna Korbel. They were exactly what they seemed. From eating bananas without cutting out the bruises, "I am thankful for such wonderful fresh fruit."; to taking twilight walks together hand in hand, they lived their love of God and of each other in an unforgettable way. (The "K" in my niece's name "Kelsie" actually represents "Korbel", such was the impression left on a 9 year old girl who  much later became a mom.)
