About this book

In today's world, it is often difficult to take the road less traveled--a road where one's religious beliefs and moral convictions are uncompromising. Early in his life, Pastor Artur Pawlowski decided to follow the Lord, no matter the cost. Years later, at an Easter celebration in his church, he finally grasped the price Christians often pay for their decision to follow after God. Refusing to close the church doors during the COVID-19 pandemic, Pawlowski stood his ground that particular holy day when a Health Inspector and numerous officers attempted to interrupt his service. After he shouted, "Get Out" repeatedly, the officials retreated, allowing the worship service to resume. But unbeknownest to Pastor Artur, a clip of this heated exchange went viral after being posted to social media. Within hours, the video gained the attention of millions worldwide who shared his frustration with the unreasonable regulations and mandates. Ultimately, Pawlowski was arrested on a rainy highway in what resembled a circus act. He was imprisoned for 51 days, with much of it being held in solitary confinement. This book documents the events leading up to that arrest and the lonely days in prison where his faith was challenged like never before. Be inspired as you learn of the many blessings that resulted from his imprisonment, including answered prayers and life-changing conversions by inmates. His story is a beacon of hope for all.--Artur Pawlowski
