Finding My Way Home: a Christian Life in Communist China Kenneth Chatlos

"When I was a young girl, my parents warned me never to record my story with black ink on white paper." So begins Finding My Way Home, the story of one Chinese Christian girl in an age of great change for a great nation. Nettie Ma chronicles the trials and tribulations she faced, including the Japanese occupation of China, China?s own civil war, and Chairman Mao?s Communist Cultural Revolution of re-education, brainwashing, and imprisonment. Her journey has been far from straight and smooth, but she writes, "when I have looked up, God has given me eyes to see."

From the conversion of her grandfather in China by an American missionary to her immigration to the United States, Nettie Ma traces her Christian journey through the valleys and peaks that have ultimately led her home. She now captures this journey with black ink on white paper for all to read.
