Author Description

Liu Zhenying, known as Brother Yun, born 1958, is a Chinese preacher and evangelist whose life has been marked by both persecution and miracles through his intense desire to reach China with the gospel. He is also a leader of the 'Back to Jerusalem Movement' which seeks to send thousands of missionaries out from China into the least-gospel-reached countries of the world, most existing between China and Israel. He now lives in Germany and is married to Deling and has two children.

Paul Hattaway, an expert on the Chinese church, has authored numerous books, including The Heavenly Man, Back to Jerusalem, Operation China, and Project Pearl. He leads Asia Harvest, a ministry dedicated to serving and supporting the Chinese Church.

Product Description

Living Water is a compelling saga of Brother Yun’s sacrifice to bring Jesus and the Bible to non-believers. Through his dynamic teachings, Brother Yun shares a message of radical trust and authentic Christian discipleship to churches around the world. Using the message of the Bible and interweaving it with stories of life-changing faith, Living Water distills the wisdom of this courageous Christian man who suffered intense persecution for his beliefs. Brother Yun challenges Christians to go deeper in their faith, and become bold in their witness for Christ. He shows how God can make you as bold as a lion, and bring your days as a timid Christian to an end. The book of Acts continues today in the lives of courageous believers like Brother Yun. An inspirational challenge to deeper discipleship, Living Water offers moving stories of struggles and victories, miracles of grace and mountains moved.

From the back cover of the book

In The Heavenly Man, you learned the story of how God took a young half-starved boy from Henan Province and enabled him to stand strong on the frontlines for Jesus Christ, braving horrific opposition and impossible odds.

Living Water is a collection of Brother Yun's dynamic teachings that evolved from his life experiences of persecution and revival in China. Brother Yun shares how the grace of God sustained him during his darkest hours and how that darkness was transformed into the infectious joy and zeal for the Lord that are the hallmark of his ministry today. This unique book teaches us that radical faith is not for a chosen few, but for every believer who dares to call Jesus Christ Lord.

"Brother Yun is fervent and fiery for Jesus. I'm sure that he will be among the Lord's anointed of the next generation, who build the kingdom of God in the toughest places on earth. I appreciate and honor this great servant of God."
—Reinhard Bonnke, German evangelist, founder of Christ for All Nations

"Brother Yun's life is one so totally captured by Jesus that no imaginable hardship or persecution can stop him from being more than a conqueror."
—Rolland & Heidi Baker, missionaries to Africa and directors of Iris Ministries
