In 1939 Rev. Waitstill Sharp, a young Unitarian minister, and his wife, Martha, a social worker, accepted a mission from the American Unitarian Association: They were to leave their home and young children in Wellesley, Massachusetts, and travel to Prague, Czechoslovakia, to help address the mounting refugee crisis.

My journey in writing this audiobook started when my youngest son, Joshua, was deployed to Iraq. The experiences he shared appeared to show interesting parallels between what was happening with him in Iraq and what I was experiencing myself as a pastor.

Near completion, my computer crashed, and my entire manuscript was lost. Disheartened, I put the box up and forgot about it. Seventeen years later, I rediscovered Joshua’s letters!
