Bible smuggler. These words immediately conjure pictures of courageous people who risked their lives crossing borders, braving checkpoints, and working at night to avoid the watchful eye of the secret police. These people carried the precious Word of God into and throughout communist countries, and finally into the hands of eager, awaiting believers.
Into Their Hands records the stories of smugglers and their ingenious ways to transport Bibles. Brave? Yes. But they were human just like us. They battled fear and discouragement. They struggled with knowing whom to trust. But the thought of eager hands reaching out to claim their manna from heaven kept driving the secretive network of Bible smuggling on.

Unbelievable. Follow the Bibles--printed both in the Romanian and Russian language--as they make their way through a strict border crossing into Romania. Pass through several harrowing checkpoints and experience the intense grief and punishment when the Word gets discovered by the ungodly authorities. Meet a man in a wheelchair who passes the forbidden Scriptures along onto a bee truck. Discover how the Bibles find their way to a construction site on the Romanian-Ukranian border where they are lovingly placed into sacks of cement by the crane operator, to be picked up by another man on a motorcycle who drops them off in a tool shed just a few miles into the Ukraine. From there the Bibles get hidden in cans of paint, baked inside loaves of bread, and finally placed in waiting hands--faces often streaked with tears and receiving such a treasure. This book really binds Christians around the world. It is a practical example of how Christians have borne one another's burdens. Anita Gordon
