This road that we travel/ May it be the straight and narrow/ God give us peace and grace from you --from the song "This Road" by Jars of Clay
It was while singing to members of underground churches in China and Vietnam that Jars of Clay first realized the global impact of these words. "This Road," a song about the body of Christ, was originally written for Christians in the United States. But during their visit overseas, Jars of Clay realized the community of worshipers is so much larger than that! We are one body, with many parts--including brothers and sisters around the world who are daily threatened with imprisonment, beatings, even death, for their faith in Jesus Christ. The band now sees the song as an anthem of support for Christians everywhere, making it a perfect fit for the stories found in The Narrow Road. A multimedia CD of "This Road," with footage of Jars of Clay's trip, is included in the book along with a foreword by the band.
The central story of The Narrow Road is the complete text of Brother Andrew's autobiography God's Smuggler. Since 1955, this remarkable man has risked his life to help persecuted Christians by smuggling Bibles into countries where owning or distributing them is strictly forbidden. His story, packed with dangerous adventures and amazing turns, testifies to the miraculous ways God provides for those who risk it all.
Journey also into places still hostile to Christians--with profiles on courageous champions of the faith. Meet teens and others across the globe who, like the believers Jars of Clay visited, are mercilessly persecuted for their faith in Christ. Their stories, along with Brother Andrew's, will forever change the way you walk the narrow road.
BROTHER ANDREW began his work in 1955 as a one-man mission--visiting, teaching, and taking Bibles to Christians behind the Iron Curtain. That work has since developed into Open Doors International, a nondenominational organization with bases around the world. When not traveling, Brother Andrew makes his home in the Netherlands.
JARS OF CLAY is a multi-platinum selling and GRAMMY Award winning band. They have long been committed to raising awareness of persecuted Christians through charitable efforts and work with organizations such as Prayer for the Persecuted Church. Their hugely successful albums include IF I LEFT THE ZOO and a 1995 self-titled release that included the popular radio single, "Flood." Their song "This Road" was originally part of the Dove Award winning project CITY ON A HILL--SONGS OF WORSHIP AND PRAISE.
