| Heroes
of God
Henri Daniel-Rops
In every age and every country, valiant men and
women have rejected the empty pursuit of worldly comforts and devoted
their lives to bringing the transforming truth of Jesus Christ to
people who do not know Him. Here are the courageous deeds of eleven
of these holy heroes, told with exhilarating vigor and immediacy
by the master Catholic historian Henri Daniel-Rops.
From pagan Rome and Aztec Mexico to forbidden Tibet,
Muslim North Africa, and the farthest reaches of the earth, these
intrepid Catholics cheerfully risked rejection, ridicule, imprisonment,
and even torture and death in order to proclaim the saving message
of Christ.
