Jumping Through Fires

The Gripping Story of One Man’s Escape from Revolution to Redemption

by David Nasser

David Nasser now lives in America and is a Christian evangelist, but in 1979 was a child living in Iran with his parents and sister. Because his father was a senior officer in the Shah's army, it was no longer a safe place to be when the Revolution took place, so the family managed to get out via Switzerland and Germany to America. The family underwent the usual cultural shocks while settling into a new country and lifestyle, but the greatest shock for David was finding that as a Muslim he not only became a Christian, but also, quite rapidly, a leader and speaker. The key message I got from this book was an understanding of the movement from religion representing fear and repression to that of joy and redemption.
