Pulling Back the Curtain on the Former Soviet Union (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780834143913)

Following the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Iron Curtain, the vast expanse of the Soviet Union became accessible to the outside world. Suddenly, the Church of the Nazarene was confronted with exciting and challenging opportunities for ministry and missions. Among those spearheading this pioneering missionary work were Franklin Cook and Carla Sunberg, the authors of Pulling Back the Curtain on the Former Soviet Union. Written with compassion, enthusiasm, and a bit of humor, this book recounts the adventures and misadventures of the missionaries as they secure resources, learn new customs, acquire daily living skills, and, most importantly, minister to people and introduce them to the gospel.
