In a jungle war of survival, they learned sacrifice. In a prison of brutal confinement, they found true freedom.
A true story about four Allied POW’s who endure harsh treatment from their Japanese captors during World War II while being forced to build a railroad through the Burmese jungle.

Compassion is what Jesus felt for those in need. I am using this clip to show what compassion is. as one of the qualities we as Christ disciples must have as we got about and win souls for Him. This is my 3rd messages on a series "be wise, win souls".

There is nothing more important than loving God with all of your heart and all of your soul and all of your mind and all of your strength! Nothing! But Jesus also included a second greatest commandment by saying to love your neighbor as yourself.
