Whether or not you are a Christian, this book will touch your soul. Samuel Lamb spent over 20 years in Chinese prisons for sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. As a Christian, it has challenged me in my walk with Christ.

I felt strongly enough about this book to go out of my way to write a review (!). I learned a lot about how the Chinese government deals with the Church. I would love to meet Pastor Lamb someday.

In 1996, a friend loaned me their copy of Bold as a Lamb just one month prior to our trip to China. This book gave me a stronger understanding of the real presecution that takes place everyday in this fallen world that desperately needs Jesus Christ. This book recounts the story of one Christian man's life within the wallls of China. How he spent over 20 years of his life in prison because of his faith in Jesus Christ. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone Christian or not. Also, to those who teach High School or College students this would be an excellent book for classroom reading and discusion. While in China, I personally met Pastor Samual Lamb and worshiped with his home church.

"Bold As A Lamb" shows what happens when an ordinary man lives his life in faith. There are no bells and whistles, no chills and thrills, but a solid, faith-inspiring book that shows what an authentic, bold life for Christ should be like. Samuel Lamb is the real thing.

This book is an inspiration. I thought I had lost one I had purchased years ago, but after ordering this one I found it! So, after my husband read it he shared it with a relative. In fact, he wants to purchase 12 more! This book gives a detailed description of life in China under very controlled circumstances regarding sharing the Christian witness.

I consider this book one of the most important ones I've read! An inspiring life lived for God in a country that is hostile to Christians.
