God's Generals the Martyrs, Volume 6

They Paid the Ultimate Price

In his sixth God's Generals volume, Roberts Liardon chronicles some of the great martyrs for the faith--and some of the lesser-known ones. Their inspirational testimony, acts of courage, and even seasons of doubt both encourage and point awareness toward the persecuted church of the twenty-first century.

The book includes profiles on...

• Apostle Paul and Stephen the Faithful (c. 100 AD)
• Polycarp of Smyrna, Justin Martyr, and Ignatius of Antioch (c. 100-175 AD)
• Perpetua, Blandina, and Irenaeus and Fabian (c. 175-350 AD)
• William Tyndale, John Wyclyffe, Patrick Hamilton, and John Hus (c. 1300-1530)
• Anne Askew, John Foxe, Hugh Latimer, and Thomas Cranmer (c. 1530-1560)
• Martyrs from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
• Dietrich Bonhoeffer, John and Betty Stam, and Jim Elliot (c. 1900-1950)
• Wang Zhiming, Gaspar Makil, and Archbishop Oscar Romero (c. 1950-1990)
• Martyrs from the twenty-first century, in regions such as the Philippines, Iraq, Libya, and Syria
