Book excerpt: The Soviet Communist Party, with help of the secret police, attempted to completely eliminate religion from Soviet society by, in part, imprisoning believers and attempting to "re-educate" them in the labor camps of the infamous Gulag. Finding God in the Gulag tells the story of how imprisoned Christians nevertheless found ways to pray, read scripture, sing hymns, celebrate Easter, and commune with their fellow believers.
