DESCRIPTION

Thirteen of Reaksa Himm's immediate family, including both his parents, were executed by the Khmer Rouge under Pol Pot. The young killers marched them from the remote northern village to which they had been exiled, out into the jungle. One by one the machetes fell. Severely wounded, Reaksa was covered by the bodies of his family.

His remarkable story of survival is told in 'The Tears of My Soul'. In this second book he describes how he tracked down his family's killers, one by one, embraced them, gave them a scarf of friendship and presented each with a Bible. He has also funded and had built a clinic, school and five churches in the area. This is an astonishing tale of the consequences of spiritual rebirth.

Today Sokreaksa Himm is an evangelist and church planter in Cambodia, with an international speaking ministry.

"A painful story that faces up to the ugliest realities of our world - and meets them with the astonishing hope of the Gospel of Jesus Christ." - Rev. Hugh Palmer, Rector, All Souls Church, Langham Place, London.
