When he became a God's smuggler, the intrepid Andrew van der Bijl was already familiar with risk. As a child, he collaborated with the Dutch resistance against the Nazi occupation; and as a young man, he enthusiastically fought in the Dutch East Indies, until the horrors of war transformed his thirst for adventure into a nightmare of alcohol and despair.
Once redeemed by God, he became a bold messenger of hope, successfully smuggling Scriptures across closed borders and helping to train persecuted Christians living behind the Iron Curtain. Today, Brother Andrew and the Open Doors ministry continue their work of shining the light of Christ in the darkest places on Earth.
