"I want a fierce, masterful, fearless and ferocious youth. It can't show any weakness or tenderness. The free and magnificent beast of prey must finally glow again from their eyes." --Adolf Hitler World War II Germany. It was a fierce and dangerous place where evil had bullied its way into power and controlled the daily lives of almost every individual. But not all. One Woman Against the Reich chronicles the true story of Maria Ziefle's struggle to raise her children free from the hate-filled grip of the Nazi regime. It is a powerful portrayal of the courage and determination of a Christian parent to remain obedient to God in spite of the enticements and assaults of a hostile culture. And it's a struggle that continues today. Our secular culture, filled with enticing messages and explicit images, applies relentless pressure on our kids. If you're tempted to give up and give in, you'll find encouragement and strength in this inspiring story of how God, who is greater than any culture or government, honors the commitments of those who are faithful to Him. "And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them: He shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in Him." --Psalm 37:40 Helmut W. Ziefle (Ph.D., University of Illinois), the youngest son of George and Maria Ziefle, lived in Germany during World War II, where he knew air-attacks, hunger, and chaos as a way of life. The Ziefle family immigrated to the United States in 1956. After pursuing his education in the States, Dr. Ziefle taught German at both the high school and college levels, and is Professor Emeritus at Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois.
