While Mortals Sleep (Songs In the Night, Volume 1)

This compelling novel from master storyteller Jack Cavanaugh documents the drama of Christian courage under Hitler's Third Reich. Pastor Josef Schumacher is infuriated when a Nazi youth rally pulls some of the young people in his congregation away from church services. Fearful of the sway of inflammatory rhetoric and false patriotism, Josef risks his life to counteract the Nazi lies. With the Gestapo lurking behind every corner, Josef infiltrates a hospital that is killing disabled children in an effort to save their lives - and only the help of Hitler's youth can save him and the children from death. Now it's up to each of the youths to decide. Will they choose the Fatherland - or the Father?
