    About this audiobook

    Leaving Islam for Christianity cost her more than she imagined, but gave more than she could have dreamed.

    Rifqa Bary grew up in a devout Muslim home, obediently following her parents' orders to practice the rituals of Islam. But God was calling her to freedom and love. He was calling her to true faith. He was calling her to give up everything.
     
    Hiding in the Light is the story of Rifqa's remarkable spiritual journey from Islam to Christianity. It is also the untold story of how she ran from her father's threats to find refuge with strangers in Florida, only to face a controversial court case that reached national headlines. Most of all, it is the story of a young girl who made life-changing sacrifices to follow Jesus-and who inspires us to do the same.

      Amazing story or grace and redemption, forgiveness and healing, courage walking through the valley of the shadow of death. I am so glad I took the time to listen. Awesome also that the author read.

      Compelling; the risks of conversion from Islam are real, and especially harsh on children and women. Western assumptions of appropriate behavior from a father / husband to his family are not accurate when a Muslim man is shamed by his family's behavior.
