She Who Would Valiant Be

Bol

The tumultuous and unstable conditions of sixteenth century England included a constant shifting of religious assertions and enforcements, which in turn led to the persecution of those souls refusing to conform and consent to the dictates of Church and State. Within this volume Juliet Goodeve presents and honours a number of women who were caught up in the ecclesiastical turmoil of the reigns of King Henry VIII and Queen Mary I, and documents, amongst other things, their courage, boldness, fidelity, and love for God as they endured trials and tribulations, suffering and death, for the sake of their Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ. This book is a growth-orientated devotional, and is aimed at the edification and encouragement of believers as they seek to walk with Christ during this ecumenical age of compromise. Fully documented, and seeking to bring alive the religious culture of 16th century England, Juliet Goodeve remembers and honours these women of God in a balanced measure, covering many facts of historical importance in the process - such as pivotal legislation by the Roman Catholic church throughout the centuries which has sanctioned and instigated religious persecution (as well as covering Protestant edicts of intolerance also.) This book is a masterpiece of reflection and exhortation, serving as a loud alarm for the women of England today to take a stand for the Saviour who loves them and died for them.
