Produktbeschreibung
The largest military mobilization in Israeli history since the Six Day War has begun. Bethlehem will soon be under siege. Bashira, a young Palestinian Christian nurse seeks to hold her family, and those in her charge, together amidst the increasing pressures exerted by the IDF [Israeli Defense Forces]. Mike Olson, a young but trusted American TV broadcast journalist, has been given special access to the IDF command headquarters. As Operation Defensive Shield unfolds, Mike becomes immersed in the battle, witnessing firsthand the pain and struggle on both sides. To his surprise, this assignment becomes more than a news story when he meets Bashira. Tragedy strikes, and Bashira faces despair that seeks to destroy her faith in Christ. Her unrelenting determination leads her down an unthinkable path. As Mike grows in his affection for her, he finds himself drawn towards what he cannot understand. Despite their differences, Bashira and Mike dare to take the hard road toward reconciliation-whatever it may require. Based on a true account of a young woman's experience during the violent escalation of the Second Intifada in the spring of 2002, Tearful Triumph is a story for the ages that reverberates across cultures and time.

Autorenporträt
Robert M. Booth is a retired businessman who spent over a quarter of a century working with a global cellular technology company headquartered in Israel. His experience in international business development allowed him to travel the globe with an Israeli Arab Executive Vice President and Jewish Director of Engineering. These three men have developed a lifelong friendship. Together, they shared the experience of living in the complex environment of Israel. Rob's time spent with his colleagues and their families allowed him special insight into their lives to discover the challenges they face. This experience also provided Rob the opportunity to spend time with evangelical Arab Christian leaders, Messianic Christians, and those believers in Christ from America and all over the world who have chosen to live in the land to share the gospel. The stories they told became the backdrop for the writing of Tearful Triumph, sharing the good news of the gospel from the perspective of disciples of Christ living in the Holy Land. Rob lives in California with his wife. He is blessed with three adult children and nine grandchildren, all of whom he adores.
