Descripción de contraportada

A Gripping, True-Life Love Story!

Shy, scholarly Craig Keener first met Mdine, a beautiful Ph.D. student from central Africa, through a campus ministry at Duke University. The two became close friends, but it wasn't until Mdine returned home that Craig--coming to terms with his own wounded heart--realized his love for her. But civil war had broken out in Congo. Mdine faced terror, disease and devastating hardship--and Craig didn't know if she was alive or dead.

Separated by continents, cultures and the ravages of war, Craig and Mdine never stopped believing that faith, hope and love can surmount even the most overwhelming obstacles. Part romance, part thrilling adventure, their story is an unforgettable, miracle-filled journey of impossible love. You will be amazed by the God whose own great love for each of us will always overcome.
