PREM
An Apostle’s Triumphant Witness for Christ in Nepal
Prem Pradhan was a Hindu and a soldier who became a powerful Christian witness in Nepal. A Gurkha in the British Royal Air Force, then commander of a tank regiment in the Indian Army.
But God had other plans for his life.
After being reconciled to God through faith in Jesus Christ, Prem knew he was called to reach a part of the world diametrically opposed to changing one’s religion: his own country of Nepal, where it was a crime to be baptized, punishable by a year in prison.
But not denying his Lord mattered more. So, when Prem baptized others, he was sentenced to six years in prison. There he encountered demons, healed other prisoners, and preached the love of God. And that’s just the start of Prem’s story.
In 1950, Nepal had few known Christians. Today? Over one million. Prem is an important part of the reason.
PREM is a book of intimate one-on-one interviews with Prem Pradhan, reflections from those who came to the Lord Jesus through him, and a testament to a true Christian apostle
PREM is an unforgettable, once-in-a generation, true story.
Read and be changed!
For those who have completed the book.

Shortly before leaving India in 1948, Christian missionary Robert V. Finley turned toward the Himalayas and asked the Lord to let him see a gospel witness in Nepal in his lifetime. Surprisingly, in 1967 Finley would meet Prem Pradhan, the man whose story he later told in Prem: An Apostle’s Triumphant Witness for Christ in Nepal.

The Supreme Emphasis Given By The New Testament
Of all that our Lord said after He rose from the dead, the only thing recorded for us is the Great Commission: “Go teach all nations.”

Reviews
Committed Christian men like Prem Pradhan appear perhaps only once in a hundred years. . .
Read the graphic, heart-wrenching, stunning account of his (and fellow believers) incarceration in Tansen Prison–and why they were sent there–for a taste of what he went through to obey the call of the Lord, and thus win many souls for Him. It is truly a story that will make your heart sing in grateful praise . . .
I knew this man. He stayed in my house. He ate at my table with my wife and four children. I took him to 41 meetings in the three weeks he stayed with me in 1977-1978. During those rides and table sittings, he told me of his countless escapades and imprisonments, and how the Lord guided and spoke to him through them all. So in a way, I knew what the book would say before I read it . . .
