SPEYER, Germany -- Islam continues to grow in power
and influence across Europe. But at a recent concert in Germany, one
Christian woman decided to stand up to it.
"The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace" by Welsh composer
Karl Jenkins was supposed to be an interfaith event to bring
Christianity and Islam together.
But when the Muslim imam began his call to prayer
during the concert, he was interrupted by a small woman in the balcony
proclaiming that "Jesus Christ alone is Lord of Germany," and shouting,
"I break this curse."
She also invoked the name of Martin Luther and warned the audience that what was happening was "a lie."
The video went viral.
'Brave German Woman'
The mysterious Christian lady became known on the Internet simply as the "brave German woman."
It happened on Nov. 10, 2013 at the Memorial Church
of the Reformation in the Rhineland city of Speyer, built to honor
Martin Luther.
It isn't just any church. It's a monument to the
Protestant Reformation and a memorial to the spiritual transformation of
Germany.
It was at this spiritual landmark that a Muslim imam
was invited to give the call to prayer. When the brave German woman,
whose real name is Heidi Mund, heard about the event, she prayed.
"I was asking Jesus, 'Lord, shall I go there?' So,
when I have to drive one and half hours, you know, I think, 'Is it worth
it to go or can others go?' So, this is human laziness, yeah?" Mund
recalled.
She grabbed her German flag emblazoned with the
words "Jesus Christ is Lord" and headed for the concert, still not sure
what she would do when she got there.
"Until the imam started with his shouting, I did not
really know what to do. I was just prepared for what God wants me to
do," she told CBN News.
Then the Muslim call to prayer began, and Heidi said she felt something rising up inside her.
