He listened to Christians to report them. He never expected their words would change his life.

God’s Secret Listener by John Butterworth is the powerful true story of an Albanian officer —assigned to spy on the radio and report on what he heard, but instead of silencing the Christian message, he found himself captivated by their faith.

Berti Dosti faced a terrible but intriguing dilemma. He was an Albanian army captain and his job as a radio specialist was to listen into the worlds airwaves. As he idly twiddled the radio dials, he heard a voice saying: If you want to find out more about God we will meet again tomorrow.

As he secretly listened to Christian radio a deeper truth began to take root. In time, the gospel that he meant to suppress became the hope that transformed him.

This inspiring story of Bertis journey from Captain Dosti to Pastor Dosti gives us a glimpse of the explosive growth of the early Albanian church after nearly half a decade of repressive atheism and the untiring efforts of Trans World Radio to broadcast the Christian message across closed borders to Albanians, who for most of their life had been told there was no God.

This engaging biography draws readers into a world where courage clashed with control—and where the gospel still triumphed.

God’s Secret Listener is a compelling reminder that no heart is unreachable and no situation too closed for God to work.
