Despite enormous risks to themselves and their families, former Muslim women are now influencing their husbands and their children and bringing others to faith in Jesus Christ. No matter where they live, these women are the God-ordained spiritual gatekeepers of their families.

Tom and JoAnn Doyle have worked for twenty-five years in the Middle East and are master storytellers of the miraculous works of God happening in the Muslim world. With a clear call to action, they "sound the alarm" to the body of Christ, using inspirational stories straight out of the underground church—stories you don’t get on the news.

The level of oppression that women face under Islam is unfathomable to many in non-Muslim nations. Life is often a string of abuses and near-enslavement under cultural norms that are anything but “normal” to the Western mind-set.

The Doyles believe that women are a major reason why more Muslims than ever before are coming to faith in Christ. Over the years they have discovered that once God sets a Muslim woman free, she becomes an unstoppable force for God. Women Who Risk takes readers into the intimacy of Muslim homes in Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran, and other hot spots to see the drama of Christ at work.

The stories of these women are both breathtaking and heart-rending. Living on the edge, these women spread the gospel without fear, and the victory of the gospel is thrilling for all to see. They are the new heroes of the Middle East.

Get ready to be moved and challenged

Incredible stories of women who were prepared to risk it all (family, friends, even their lives) for the sake of the gospel. I love to read Christian biography, as I find myself both encouraged and challenged as I read along. The stories give a glimpse into what the real cost of trusting Christ is in predominantly Muslim countries, something in the west we are somewhat oblivious too. I loved the story of the lady who used the internet to share the gospel, and who she managed to reach. The incredible perseverance of a lady who's husband beat her due to her faith, and yet who faithfully prayer for her husband to find faith. The quote that sticks with me from the book is this: "As for me, I expect to die for Jesus. In the West, you probably won't have to die for Jesus. But...will you live for Him?"

Insightful, inspiring, and awe-inducing!

This book follows the stories of a number of women from an Islam background who came to know Jesus. Each story is only a few pages long so you can dip in and out of this, but for myself and the several friends who I've recommended it to, we couldn't put it down! Every woman's story is very different and points to the God who can break into any situation. Their heart for others to know Jesus is wonderful to see as well.

Incredible stories of God at work in the Middle East!

We often forget the incredible cost of following Jesus - but this book is full of shorter stories of people coming to Jesus despite incredible pressure... It's incredibly inspiring, and well worth getting hold of!
