When All Alone I Stand
$29.39
Drafted! As World War II raged around him,
Jan Doward fought his own battles to be classified
as a conscientious objector.
A wisecracking prankster with acting potential, some of his buddies said he was destined for the stage. But God had another destiny in mind–and a life-changing encounter at sea.
Some of Jan’s bunkmates knew the Scriptures. One day their testimony hit home. “Oh, God!” Jan prayed, “forgive me for all of my selfish and sinful ways. Forgive me for taking the name of Christ without living His life. You can have all there is of me. It isn’t much–only a tough-talking, smart-acting guy–but You can have me!”
Jan rose from his knees a new man. But his dream of taking over the family ranch would soon be shattered by a letter from his mother. “I’d rather have you a thief,” she wrote, “than a Seventh-day Adventist!”
Doward’s remarkably detailed chronicle of Army life shows God’s providential leading and saving grace for those who dare to stand alone.
