Fred the Firefighter by Felicity Brooks
In 1918 Gerhard and Alma Jacobson and nine-month-old Doris sailed for China. The Chinese landscape, both geographic and spiritual, proved to be a harsh and foreboding one. The marks of the destructive claws of the Dragon dogged the missionaries- haunted houses, civil conflict, demonic attacks, Japanese threats- and death.
Then it was 1941. Pearl Harbor Attacked, the headlines blazed. In Shanghai, Gerhard Jacobson continued to broadcast the gospel one day: Ah-llo, Ah-llo, a man's voice yelled suddenly into the receiver. We cut station off air. We come get you. You stay home Gerhard ascended the stairs to the room, his thoughts running wild. Visions of Japanese torture chambers filled his mind. What did the future hold? And what about the Pearl, the Church in China? Try as he might, the Dragon has failed to destroy it.
