My Testament: A Memoir by Michael Paul

My Testament follows the true story of a man born into a revered lineage in Baghdad, a son of heritage and expectation who risked everything to answer the soft, persistent call of Christ. What begins as a life shaped by culture, war, and a hidden, trembling faith unfolds into a pilgrimage through betrayal, imprisonment, torture, homelessness, and the unexplainable mercy that kept him alive. Dragged into an underground prison in Syria and left to die, he meets God in a darkness no human being is meant to endure. Through visions, unlikely protectors, and moments of divine intervention that arrive like lamps in a cave, he is carried across borders, through terror, and-ultimately-into a freedom that no earthly chain can hold.
