Based on the bestselling Fundamentals of the Faith, Forerunners of the Faith succinctly identifies thirteen key lessons that capture the trials and triumphs of the historical Church, providing insight for how the ancient Christians responded to the problems of their day to become the pillars of faith we now consider them to be. Forerunners of the Faith serves as spiritual encouragement as we remember the legacy of God’s faithfulness to his people.
