Held at Gunpoint: My Family's Trials and Triumphs in the Heart of Africa

By Sharon Rose Gibson

In the heart of the lush, vibrant landscapes of the Democratic Republic of Congo, my childhood unfolded-a tapestry woven with the threads of danger, resilience, and adventure. "Held at Gunpoint" is a gripping memoir that unveils the raw truths of my upbringing amidst the chaos of civil strife and the undeniable beauty of African life.

Join me as I recount the harrowing moments when our family faced the unfathomable-held at gunpoint by soldiers. Our lives were dictated by the whims of those who wielded power. Yet within these trials lay profound lessons of faith, courage, and endurance.

This is not a novel but rather vivid storytelling, personal reflections and letters from my parents. Through these accounts, you can experience the richness of culture that shaped my identity, and the triumphs that arose from despair. In "Held at Gunpoint," discover how my family's journey became a testament to creating a meaningful life, the enduring strength of faith, love and God's faithfulness.

Join me on this unforgettable journey through the heart of Africa-a journey that will inspire, challenge, and awaken the faith and courage within us all.
