At fourteen, James Mayardit faced a perilous crossing: a narrow wooden bridge with missing planks. Carrying ten-year-old Ayalbior Amet Akec, known as Triple AAA, he moved forward despite the danger. When Triple AAA, weak and exhausted, asked to be left behind, James carried him across.
Six-year-old Abuk followed, gripping Triple AAA's trousers with one hand and Abraham Awan's walking stick with the other. Blind and sixty-four years old, Abraham relied on Abuk to guide him across the broken bridge.
This dangerous crossing was one moment in a larger journey shaped by war, separation, and uncertainty. Forced to shoulder responsibilities no child should bear, James drew strength from his father's teachings: resist fear, listen to the voice within, persevere through hardship, and help others.
FAITH OVER FEAR: Where Fear Could Not Follow recounts James's childhood in war-torn Sudan and the devastating effects of conflict on children. His story examines the burdens placed on the young and the enduring power of family guidance.
Rooted in Sudan's experience of war and displacement, the story reaches beyond national borders. Its themes of courage, responsibility, family, and perseverance resonate across cultures and generations.
This is a story about facing fear without allowing it to dictate the future.
