Bearing Witness
Throughout the years men and women have suffered persecution for their witness of Christ. Bearing Witness is a look at 36 men and women ready to give their all, including their very lives to witness for Christ. Most tragic are the stories of brave souls standing for Christ only to be slain by others claiming to be Christians.
The book begins with the stoning of Stephen, the first to give his all for Christ, and the bystander, Saul who held the coats of those who stoned him. There are stories from around the world up to the most recent, the stories of those who died at the hands of Boko Haram. These are important stories for our time. Although we have in the past had an easy life of religious freedom in the United States, those days are
gradually coming to a close. We need to be cautious as our country sets out to work against those of faith and we are experiencing a political movement disguised as a religion creeping into the U.S.
