David -
Biography and Photos
David Chen is
the most humble man that I have ever met. It has been a privilege to
tell his story so that his Japanese grandchildren and others can
learn how God protected him from famine and persecution in China and
brought him to political asylum and retirement in the USA.
David’s
Chinese name has been withheld for his protection.
When writing
about the Red Guard period, I suddenly realized that David and I had
each walked through “the valley of the shadow of
death” at the
same time. Thirty years ago, he was imprisoned, subjected to cruel
beatings and in total despair attempted suicide. I suffered a nervous
breakdown. In our pain, each of us called out to God, and He answered
our prayers. We agree that without our faith neither of us would be
alive today.
This book is an
attempt to glorify God by showing the miracles that God performed in
David’s life. Throughout this fascinating story, you will see
when
God held his hand, crossed his path with earthly angels or simply
carried him, when life proved too cruel.
