Elza's Quest

"""Faith meets persecution head on in this dramatic account. Kay Kuzma transports us to one of the darkest times in history to show us how faith in Christ carried one family through. The story is written with such vivid detail that I felt I was right there with the Kuzmas."" ⁓ Jon Fugler, Chief Content Officer for Trans World Radio, and Christian Author ""Elza's Quest is a powerful true story of a devoted young couple, successful in literature ministry in Poland before World War II, who found themselves caught up in the murder and mayhem of the Nazi occupation and then the Soviet onslaught. This compelling book provides a window into the horrendous decisions that faced regular people caught between competing totalitarian powers. Harassed by Nazi soldiers and the Gestapo, and then by rogue Soviet soldiers and the KGB, the family navigated unspeakable violence and hatred, enduring labor camps, hunger marches, and hostility from all sides because of their stand for Bible truth. ""Follow their incredible journey as the father escapes the tyranny of a Nazi forced labor camp, and the mother chooses family unity, attempting an impossible escape with four children across the closed communist border to rejoin her husband-only to face the challenges of living in German displaced person's camps for years. God watched over this family, miraculously preserving their lives and bringing them to America where He wrote their next chapter. Be inspired as you see how God protects His children, and how good ultimately triumphs over evil."" ⁓ Conrad Vine, DMin, President at Adventist Frontier Missions, and YouTube Personality ""The true stories written in this inspiring book by Kay Kuzma, one of America's greatest Christian authors, unveil a thrilling odyssey of the unwavering faith of a remarkable woman, the relentless vision of a father's dream, and the power of God's amazing miracles. The experiences lived and revealed here in exquisite detail not only show that when you trust in God the impossible becomes possible, but assure you will discover the peace that passes all understanding."" ⁓ Carlos Pardeiro, President/CEO & Founder of SAFE TV(R) ""Reading Kay's book, I feel blessed all over again-for I was there with the Kuzma family in the Wentorf Camp for Displaced Persons. (In the ""chapel picture"" I'm the only boy in the second row of children.) Our families went through similar disappointments. But here in America all of us Hintz children, Hannah, George, and I, were given good Christian educational opportunities, the freedom of worship, and so, so much more. God has truly blessed us. What a fantastic job of reporting, researching, and writing Kay did. Her book brings back so many memories."" ⁓ Roman Hintz (Romek Hinc in Polish), World War II Survivor, Retired Math & Science Teacher, Video Producer ""I loved reading Elza's Quest. It's just a great story. It's about real people, but reads like a page-turning novel, especially as it got deeper into her life during the war. Would they ever get married? Would they survive the war? Would they find each other after the war? Elza becomes a great model of resilience, using her deep faith to find a way to cope with whatever hit her family. A great, inspiring book by a wonderful writer!"" ⁓ Dan Smith, International Evangelist, Co-Founder of GraceFORCE Ministry"
