A Hero from the Grave

A compelling true account of sacrifice on the battlefield, and of the greater sacrifice that offers eternal life.

Overview

What is the greatest act of sacrifice? Could someone give their life to save yours?

“A Hero From the Grave” recounts a powerful wartime story where a soldier gave his life to save another on the battlefield, an act that would go on to impact the course of history.

As a young boy in Tasmania, Bernard was inspired by the sight of soldiers marching through his local town, an image that stirred something deep within him. That same boy would grow up to become one of the greatest generals of World War II.

Through this true account, the tract points beyond human heroism to the greatest sacrifice of all. Jesus Christ died and rose again to bring forgiveness, hope, and eternal life to all who trust in Him.
