When you begin reading this book you will embark on a trip through our early church history. We will begin with where it all started with Jesus and the Apostles and the start of the church. This book will hop around to examine the lives of the Apostles, and the very Ancient church immediately after the lives of the Apostles had been extinguished by martyrdom. I hope you are ready to begin the adventure and awe inspir-ing journey ahead as you begin your reading I encourage you to try to place yourself in the setting's you will read about, try to envision with your mind's eye what is going on in the situations we will examine and ask yourself: would I be so noble, would I be so true, or would I stand so firm on Christ and His Word?
