520    When journalist Liao Yiwu first stumbled upon a vibrant 
       Christian community in the officially secular China, he 
       knew little about Christianity. In fact, he'd been taught 
       that religion was evil, and that those who believed in it 
       were deluded, cultists, or imperialist spies. But as a 
       writer whose work has been banned in China and has even 
       landed him in jail, Liao felt a kinship with Chinese 
       Christians in their unwavering commitment to the freedom 
       of expression and to finding meaning in a tumultuous 
       society. Unwilling to let his nation lose memory of its 
       past or deny its present, Liao set out to document the 
       untold stories of brave believers whose totalitarian 
       government could not break their faith in God, including: 
       The over-100-year-old nun who persevered in spite of 
       beatings, famine, and decades of physical labor, and still
       fights for the rightful return of church land seized by 
       the government; The surgeon who gave up a lucrative 
       Communist hospital administrator position to treat 
       villagers for free in the remote, mountainous regions of 
       southwestern China; The Protestant minister, now 
       memorialized in London's Westminster Abbey, who was 
       executed during the Cultural Revolution as "an 
       incorrigible counterrevolutionary." This ultimately 
       triumphant tale of a vibrant church thriving against all 
       odds serves as both a powerful conversation about politics
       and spirituality and a moving tribute to China's valiant 
       shepherds of faith, who prove that a totalitarian 
       government cannot control what is in people's hearts.
