Mac Alexander was serving as South Africa's military attaché in Taipei, Taiwan in 1997, when he and his family were taken hostage in their home by the most feared and dangerous criminal on the island: Chen Chin-hsing. Using Mac and his oldest daughter as human shields in shoot-outs with the police, Chen brought them to the brink of death, as both were shot in the crossfire. But the family responded with love and forgiveness by leading Chen to Christ – and everlasting life – before his execution.

"You did a good deal of justice to the most fascinating news story Taiwan had seen in a decade or more.

I also appreciate your honest, even-handed criticisms of both the police and the media, and straightforwardness

in proclaiming your faith to God." ~ David Frazier, features editor, The Taipei Times
