Learning from History - Part III



A great way to learn from history is to sit down with someone who lived through it and hear their story. Thanks to author Bill O'Byrne, we can do just that.

Have you ever heard of the "900-Day Seige" of Leningrad? This difficult time is well worth experiencing through the eyes of young Marina and her family.



From back of book:

"God was not absent or silent during the '900-Day Siege' or Blockade of Leningrad... The compelling story of little Marina Sergeyevna and her parents demonstrates the significant role that one family of Christians played in surviving the Blockade, and how [they] helped other people survive it with dignity and faith in God. ...Faith in God was the the secret of strength in weakness."
