Forgiving My Kidnappers - Gracia Burnham Compelled - Christian Stories & Testimonies
-
- Christianity
Gracia Burnham was serving as a missionary in the Philippines when she and her husband were kidnapped by Muslim terrorists. They spent over a year in the jungle as hostages enduring hardships of all kinds, including constant shortage of drinking water, near starvation, and 17 gun battles.
Even more difficult than the physical challenges were the questions Gracia wrestled with. How could God still love her? How could she forgive those who had so horribly mistreated her?
God worked in miraculous ways through Gracia’s time in captivity to change her heart, all for his glory.
