Fear Not

FEAR NOT: Devotionals for Times Like These-over 200 stories of God's faithfulness to men and women who weathered the worst. Many were martyrs, all faced challenges and risks that equal any modern threat. But somehow they found courage and peace from which we can learn. Reading their stories, hearing their words, and meditating on the Scriptures that sustained them gives strength for today.

In addition, the book includes six essays on the major eras of church expansion and the accompanying persecution. The stories are arranged chronologically, grouped by the eras that-even in the table of contents-chart the "hot pockets" of resistance and persecution in regions until the gospel ultimately spread throughout the world.

An index enables scholars, teachers, and preachers to quickly find specific characters and the synopsis of their life and witness.
