Resumen del Editor

Would you suffer persecution, poverty, and prison for Christ?

Would you endure cruel tortures that take your mind and body to the brink of death and beyond?

Would you watch your children suffering for their faith and urge them to remain faithful to Christ?

Would you endure inhuman tortures and "hold fast the profession of your faith without wavering" (Hebrews 10:23)?

Would you stand boldly and without shame and confess Christ as your Lord, to your own and to your family's peril?

Two thousand years of martyrs.

For nearly 2000 years, courageous men and women have been tortured and killed because of their confessions of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

The New Foxe's Book of Martyrs tells their stories. Stories of heroic courage and overcoming faith. Stories of love of God and Christ. Stories of the amazing grace of God that enabled men, women, and children to endure persecutions and often horrible deaths.

Foxe's last revision in 1570.

Foxe's last revision of his Book of Martyrs was in 1570. In the 18th century others added to his book. But Christians have continued to be persecuted and martyred every year since then. More Christians were martyred in this century alone than in all the past centuries combined.

The New Foxe's Book of Martyrs tells their stories from A.D. 37 to 1997 in modern English, and includes new historical data that clarifies and harmonizes people, places, and times.

The New Foxe's Book of Martyrs is the most up–to–date version of Foxe's book ever published. It is essential listening for the study of Christian persecution in Foxe's day and in ours.

Praise God for Jesus Christ. The book is powerful

Five stars. Every Christian should read it and have a copy in their library. Amen !

Strength For All True Christians

This wonderful collection of stories will horrify you from the unbelievable atrocities committed against the body of Christ but will strengthen a Christian even more. I'm on my third read now and it's always a source of strength. The narrator Tim Côté delivers this with a voice that brings the stories back to life. It was so influential that it helped me write a song on the persecutions from Christ to his apostles. Titled the Fire For The Cause on iTunes and others.

Praise God!

God is good! One day every knee will bow… Isaiah 45:23; Romans 14:11; Philippians 2:10

Amazing - HIGHLY Recommend

The Acts of the apostles continues.
every Christian needs to read or listen to this book.
we need to know what our brothers and sisters went through and what Christianity is really all about and how powerful are the words of Jesus Christ when He said in Matthew‬ ‭16:18‬ "I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overpower it".
this book is proof of that.
very enjoyable and not boring narrator.
story is very well put together. I can't say enough how good this book is.

Must Read For Diciples, Narrator kinda monotone

I found it really encouraging although I thought the narrator did not get into the story as much as he could.

Courage of the persecuted

I am in awe of those believers who suffered for their faith. words fail me.

A must read

Heart wrenching, historically educating what the true reality of what body of Christ has been going through since his death. I can’t stress the importance of needing to know this history to humble our view of life. Let me never forget the sufferings of the innocence and our Christ, My heart is shattered in prayer for those who hold their faith and goodness through the face of pure evil. Integral love at its strongest.

Amazing convicting moving

I realized how pitifully weak my own faith is when I listened to this amazing and moving book. This should be required reading/listening for all Christians!

Great Book Editing Needs Help

The book has challenged me deeply in my walk with God and I would encourage others to listen/ read it. I feel a sense of wonder and praise the Lord for such strong fellow believers. The only suggestion that I would make is that many places sections of audio repeat and weren’t deleted. The narration was fine but nothing outstanding.

Excellent delivery.

Excellently delivered book. We'll communicated. I recieved extremely well the message of Foxe's Book of Martyrs.
