OVERVIEW:
Rebecca Deng tells us her story from childhood on, written with the candor of a child. The attacks on her village, the escapes, the running, running, running and as a little girl, not really understanding what she was running from. There was so much more; hunger and thirst and incredible personal loss. Yet God intervened time and time again saving Rebecca’s life and bringing her here to the US and a loving foster family. But even when dark times came, Rebecca turned to God for comfort and peace.
Today Rebecca is a wife and mother, author and much requested public speaker. She gives the glory all to God. Read What they meant for evil to be inspired by her story.
