One of the most incredible missionary stories ofthe 20th century. As a young boy Andrew Montonera discovered the writings of his distant relatives, John and Betty. By Life or by Death shares the captivating story of these remarkable people--inspirations of contagious joy and kingdom-focused lives. Using family scrapbooks and unpublished sources, Montonera tells how the two missionaries and their baby were kidnapped by Chinese soldiers and ransomed. Montonera recounts the courage and martyrdom of the Stams, as well as the succeeding miraculous tale that captured the world's attention. The Stams' lives were cut short, but their faithfulness continues to impact Christianity in China today. Three days before his death, John Stam mailed a letter to the mission authorities. He wrote, May God be glorified whether by life or death. Philippians 1:20 Discover how that prayer was answered both in the deaths and lives of John and Betty Stam.
