Media Reviews
So often we take our hard won liberties and freedoms for granted. All too easily we can overlook the suffering of those who enjoy none of our privileges. With years of first hand knowledge and experience to guide them, Baroness Cox and Ben Rogers tell the story of those who suffer for their faith and encourage us to be a voice for voiceless people. This is a book which everyone should read. -- David Alton (Prof.Lord Alton of Liverpool)
We all owe Caroline Cox and Benedict Rogers our gratitude for their tireless efforts to maintain awareness of the issues facing the persecuted Church, which transcend so many of our preoccupations with issues of secondary importance. The Very Stones Cry Out chronicles events and records what is happening now, which challenges us to support our brethren who suffer. -- Abba Seraphim, Metropolitan of Gastonbury
In this harrowing and shocking story of persecution, Western Christians can learn so much from the witness of courageous followers of Jesus Christ. -- George Carey (Lord Carey of Clifton), former Archbishop of Canterbury
