Hot off the presses, this biography gives a fresh look at the shocking story of John and Betty Stam’s beheading in China, 1934, by Communist soldiers. Retold by the Stam’s great grandson with never-before-published information gleaned from private letters, China Inland Mission files, and other sources, the author helps make sense of their beheading, what seemed like a random act of bloodlust and violence. The vindication of their martyr death is seen by the fruit of their blood spilled on soil that produced lasting fruit.
