Synopsis

This is an account of the short history of the Cambodian Church, since its difficult beginnings among the simple rice-farmers of North-West Cambodia in the mid-1920s.;Fifty years of nearly fruitless toil culminated in the 1970s, when joyous spiritual awakening was juxtaposed with indescribable devastation. In recent years, communist rule has forced the decimated Church underground in Cambodia, driven it across into Thailand's crowded camps, and scattered it across six continents. Almost all the mature leadership perished under the Khmer Rouge.;This story is told through the lives and testimonies of a handful of strategic believers. The author, who himself spent 15 years in Cambodia, provides the background of Cambodian life and culture.
