Description

High up on a steep mountainside in the Peruvian Andes an Indian shepherd boy watched his flock. Though he could never have imagined it, God had chosen him for a remarkable task. The divine plan for Romolo Saune’s life would lead him out of the isolation & poverty of his remote mountain village to a place of leadership in His church, ultimately standing on the world stage with other international Christian leaders. God’s plan would take a boy handicapped by a learning disability – nearly illiterate – & eventually place him at the head of a team of scholars translating the Bible into the Quechua language. But as the light of the gospel penetrated the remote mountain regions of Peru, another & very different gospel began to spread. The Shining Path – one of the world’s most violent terrorist groups – fanned out into the highlands in a ruthless campaign to coerce people to join their cause. They believed that Peru’s hope lay solely in the Maoist vision of a socialist society. The Christians were just as convinced that Jesus Christ alone has the answers for the human heart & for the problems plaguing Peruvian society. A collision was inevitable. In this time of incredible suffering for the church, one man’s heroism & commitment to Christ stands out. This is the story of his life.
