‘Sabina: Tortured for Christ, the Nazi Years’
According to its official website, the ‘Sabina: Tortured for Christ, the Nazi Years’ movie revolves around the story of a woman named Sabina Wurmbrand. She is a Jewish Christian in the set of World War II.
As posted, Sabina lost her entire family to members of the army. Despite that, the story will tackle forgiveness and how Sabina will transform Nazi soldiers into being Christians as well.
According to the post, the movie is based on a true-to-life story of the same person. On the History’s Women website, Sabina Wurmbrand was said to be the co-founder of the Voice of the Martyrs.
Born on Jul. 10, 1913, in Czernowitz, Ukraine, Sabina originally came from a Jewish family. At the age of 23, she married her husband Richard Wurmbrand, and both of them reportedly discovered the Christian faith.
Eventually, the couple joined the Anglican Mission Church as part of their mission in adapting to the Christian faith. Unfortunately, when the war started, Sabina’s siblings and parents were killed by the Nazis in concentration camps.
To aid other Jewish natives, the couple decided to rescue Jewish children from being killed and did underground Christian activities like preaching about Jesus Christ. Due to several arrests that happened to the Wurmbrands, they began their underground ministry for the enslaved people and Russian armies.
The couple’s Christian mission went effective and spread out to many people. They have created numerous Christian camps and conducted street meetings, with some reaching nearly 5,000 attendees.
Despite their success, Richard was then arrested in 1948 and was released after 16 years. Over the next years after his release, Richard and Sabina continued to work on their ministry ‘Voice of the Martyrs.’
