Dear Friend,
Hannah, a believer in Jesus in Northeast Nigeria, couldn't believe the "unexpected grace..."
Her parents had been murdered at the hands of Boko Haram militants, who'd nearly burned their village to the ground.
As Hannah felt the devastation of her grief, she knew she needed to find a way for her and her siblings to survive. That's why she was overcome by the kindness of a Muslim cleric who offered to care for them.
But the "unexpected grace" was merely a smokescreen to lure Hannah in. The food he offered, financial help, it was all a cover up.
The cleric was more of a monster than a man, and eventually demanded that Hannah denounce her faith in Jesus, convert to Islam, and become his wife. Hannah was just 18 years old.
When Hannah refused, the cleric unleashed his fury on the teenaged girl, even threatening to kill her.
In a tirade, he then cast Hannah before the Sharia Court - demanding her execution with accusations of cheating him and apostasy.
While waiting for her hearing, the Sharia Court locked Hannah up in a Nigerian prison cell...
