Description
1890–2023
Christ’s Church will continue.
Almost 2000 years ago, Jesus promised his followers “I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
In recent years, those words have become very a precious and a secure hope for Christians across the world. Jesus’ Church is a family that must endure onward.
Within these pages, we find Christians who will do just that across a range of spheres and in various struggles: including Dietrich Bonhoffer, C.S. Lewis, Billy Graham, Elizabeth Elliot, Eta Linnemann, and Benjamin Kwashi. Whether they seek to make new followers of Jesus, combat evil and injustice, defend the truth of the Bible, or endure intense persecution, these men and women exhibit a faith of deep resolve.
The Risen Hope series is a narrative–driven journey through the history of the Church. Introducing key people and events from the last two thousand years, readers will be captivated by the fascinating stories and engaging style. Continuing the legacy of its predecessor, the History Lives series, the Risen Hope series is a breath of fresh air on the church history scene. Book 5 of 5.
