Modern Exile

They were missionaries.
They were husband and wife.
And then they were taken hostage.
For more than a year, Martin and Gracia Burnham were forced to endure hunger, exhaustion, fear, and captivity in the jungles of the Philippines.
They had no idea how their story would end.
But even in the darkness, they held on to their faith.
Their story is heartbreaking. It is terrifying. And it is a powerful reminder that faith is not only tested when life is easy but when everything is taken away.
This is the true story of Martin and Gracia Burnham.
✝️ “For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” Philippians 1:21
