This book traces personal memoirs to encourage others in their personal sense of insecurity to be freed by God's grace, to become bold "in Christ." It binds memoirs of the inner self, with one's opportunities of public service. Two highlights are recorded: how three Soviet leaders as Christians negotiated with three American Christian leaders, to prevent a nuclear holocaust; and how crowds saying the Lord's prayer, as they marched into Romanian towns, overcame the dictatorship. The Western press has never recorded both of these events.
