You will rejoice with the saints who kept God's church alive through it all, heroes who refused to bow down to error and lies, and who chose to freely serve God with unwavering faith. Best of all, you'll see what comes next in these closing days of history and how you can be prepared to stand for love, truth, and freedom when evil forces soon try to force you to worship the enemy, instead of Jesus.

You’ll love the big, colorful illustrations and your imagination will soar as you encounter real-life heroes and gain an appreciation of their faith, courage, and struggle for freedom.
