"Poignant. Powerful. Achingly real. Twice-Rescued Child is a portrait of suffering and surrender that beckons the reader to examine his or her heart, and ask: ‘Where is God in the midst of darkness?’ From escaping the reach of Hitler’s death camps and surviving the depths of grief and loss in a post-war world, to a fully surrendered life in worldwide missions, Thomas Graumann recounts his life experiences with authenticity, wisdom, and uncommon depth. Holocaust historians will find value in the journey, as will those contemplating the call to ministry— anyone ready to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with a broken world." -- Kristy Cambron, bestselling author of The Butterfly and the Violin and the Lost Castles series
"Open the pages of the Twice-Rescued Child and you will be swept into an intimate, first-person account of a Czech Jew who was rescued via the Kindertransport during the early days of the Second World War. His story is told in a way that feels like you’re sharing coffee with him, hunched over a small table; you will see the war through a child’s eyes, feel his confusion and experience each emotion with him. It’s a simple story of a complex time that demonstrates the miracle of being rescued not just once but twice." -- Cara Putman, ECPA bestselling and award-winning author of Shadowed by Grace and Imperfect Justice
