Trial and Triumph

Christians find their true family line not through tribes and ethnic blood but in the bond of faithfulness and shed blood that has united our family for millennia. We too often view Church history as the story of obscure aliens instead of the lives of brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers. In this collection of forty-six brief biographies for children, Hannula sketches the stirring trials and triumphs of many famous and some lesser known figures in our family of faith - including Augustine, Charlemagne, Anselm, Luther, Bunyan, and C. S. Lewis. Through them we can begin to enjoy the old paths and find rest for our souls.
