SAVING MY ASSASSIN

“I should be dead. Buried in an unmarked grave in Romania. Obviously, I am not. Apparently, God had other plans.”

— Virginia Prodan, Saving My Assassin

Book cover: "Saving My Assassin" by Virginia Prodan.

Shaken by a Powerful Event

Why did I write “Saving My Assassin?” Why did I wait until nearly three decades after I fled Romania for America to tell my story?

My complete life story is not finished because God is still calling me to greater things, but I was shaken by a powerful event that completed one chapter of my story.

1985

Bucharest, Romania: A trained assassin intent on killing me walked into my office. After years of fighting a corrupt Communist regime and defending Christians, this was the end of the road. But, God saved me that day. He also saved the man opposite me holding a gun ready to fire.

2010

Dallas, Texas: A trained assassin formerly intent on killing me walked into my office. I did not recognize him at first. As he spoke, my pulse quickened and my blood chilled. Was this the final plot to end me? Or, was this the most amazing reminder I could ever receive from God of the power of his transformative Truth?

Reviews For Saving My Assassin

Lieutenant Colonel Allen B. West (US Army, Retired)
President/CEO, National Center for Policy Analysis - Member of 112th US Congress“Virginia Prodan’s new book Saving My Assassin, is a relevant read. The story of a Christian attorney fighting for religious liberty against persecution in Romania is timely for us in America. We are seeing growing prosecution against the Judeo-Christian faith heritage and individual religious freedom here in America. There could be no better time to hear Virginia’s story than now. And she enlightens us to a real aspect of the infamous ‘War on Women’ – that ideological conflagration against Christian women. Virginia’s book tells her story – one of being strong and of good courage.”
Cathie Adams
President of Texas Eagle Forum“Virginia Prodan’s love for America is palpable. Saving My Assassin will convince you that preserving American superpower serves not only her citizens, but also impacts countless lives around the globe that are enslaved by Marxism. ”

Dr. Frank Turek
Award-winning author and coauthor “I Don’t Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist”; Christian Apologist & President of CrossExamined.org"Saving My Assassin is a riveting true story of a young woman standing for Christ in a government that would rather have her dead. It’s not only entertaining, but Virginia’s story provides the kind of inspiration and example that you may need as our world continues to darken."
Kelly Shackelford, Esq.
President, CEO and Chief Counsel of Liberty Insitute"Saving My Assassin is captivating and you won’t be able to put it down. Virginia Prodan has written an incredible book that every American will want to read. It’s rare to find a book so well written, and so emotionally powerful, and yet teaching wonderful lessons about freedom and courage and the great moral principles to which we all need to aspire. This is a must read."
Bob Cornuke
Author"Saving My Assassin will grab your heart from the very start and pull you from a dark pit of hellish discouragement to the lofty ramparts of a hope fulfilled. This book is a lightning bolt of truth that sends out a thunderclap warning for all today. Not defeated by raw fear nor circumstances unimaginable this brave woman survived it all to find her name forever etched in the halls of heroic accomplishment. A must read that will defiantly inspire all that takes this incredible journey."
Former Senator Jim DeMint
President and CEO - The Heritage Foundation“Saving My Assassin is a stirring account of valor under an oppressive regime and faith in the face of faithlessness. Prodan’s heartbreaking, inspiring life journey from Communist Romania to the birthplace of freedom will move readers of every background, and serves as a call to action for a new generation of Americans whose religious liberty is already under attack by the corrupt and powerful. Through persecution, conversion, exile, and triumph, Prodan reminds us: there is always hope.”
Rick Green
former legislator and author of Constitution Alive!“Virginia’s riveting story of courage and faith is a great reminder of how precious freedom truly is and why it is so important to have those like Virginia willing to fight for that freedom in the courtroom and also the halls of our legislatures. Saving My Assassin also serves as a warning to all Americans that the brutality of tyranny often begins with the abuse of the judiciary, all while singing the praises of the rule of law.”
Rev. Pierre Bynum
Family Research Council Chaplain & National Prayer Director"Virginia Prodan’s electrifying true story - Saving My Assassin - reads like a well-crafted novel, but burns with the power only truth can convey – and in a very personal way. America is not Ceaușescu’s Romania, but too many of our countrymen treat liberty casually, and some have traded their liberties for a mess of pottage. May God use Virginia’s story to stir Americans to take a stand for the liberty so many of our fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters have died to preserve."

This surprise encounter inspired “Saving My Assassin” (published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.) and proved without a shadow of doubt that nothing is impossible without God.
