A changed life is strong...

A changed life is strong evidence for the Christian faith. Jacob DeShazer was one of
General Doolittle's raiders who bombed Tokyo on April 18, 1942. He'd been raised in the
Christian faith but had given up thinking about God. He bailed out over Japanese-
occupied territory and spent the rest of WWII as a prisoner of war. His hatred and
bitterness overflowed. After years of confinement, he was allowed to read the Bible. He
believed it. His heart was changed and he began to love his captors. After the war, he
attended college and returned to Japan to preach and teach about God's love for the
Japanese.
A pamphlet that he wrote about his experience and he handed out on the streets of Tokyo led to the conversion and his lifelong friendship with Mitsuo Fuchida. Fuchida eventually became a Christian pastor. He had been the lead pilot that bombed Pearl Harbor.
