    About this ebook

    Strong, driven, and fiercely independent, Sonora Brown leaves the comfort and convenience of her American life to provide economic relief to communities in Afghanistan. As she steps behind walled communities, she is braced to experience a country known for violence and hostility, where women have no voice or privilege. What she uncovers is kindness, hospitality, and a graceful strength that defy circumstances and confront her own cultural prejudices and understanding of God.

    Beauty Beyond the Walls is an honest, perseverant chronicle of faitha witness to the work of God in a place often deemed hopeless and forgotten. Browns experience teaches that when we surrender ourselves to embrace those around us, we open our hearts to know God.
