More than Conquerors
Hector Rodriguez pastors a small church in Tijuana and sometimes ventures into the darkest, most remote areas of Mexico where superstition and resentment of outsiders runs rampant. When his mother accompanies him on one of his trips, she opts to stay and use the Bible as a primer to teach reading to those who are willing to learn. Her presence is quickly resented, and her life is on the line—so much so that Hector must now ask himself if he is willing to continue his unwelcome missionary work, despite the price that might be required of him and his family.

    More Than Conquerors by Kathi Macias is the second book in the Extreme Devotion series that began with No Greater Love. Hector is pastoring a small church in Tijuana while his mother, Victoria, evangelizes to a much smaller group deep in the Mexican countryside where Mayan superstition still rules and any teaching different is viewed with suspicion and even in danger for their lives. Marty has finished Bible college and is working to help Hector while trying to figure out God’s plan for him in the mission field. Macias takes these different strands and weaves them all together in a story of how God is working all over the world. An aura of danger emanates from the very first page, and the reader can’t help but turn pages faster and faster as the quiet action picks up and hearts are broken. Macias has really hit her stride as an author with this series. It is filled with realistic characters and powerful stories. It almost feels like the reader is looking in on real people as they struggle with faith, hope, loss, and love.
