How the Faith Survived

Nero blamed them for a fire. Empires outlawed them, stadiums killed them, governments tried to stamp them out — and two thousand years later the church of Jesus Christ is on every continent on earth. Jesus promised the gates of hell would not prevail against it, and history is the record of that promise being kept. This book walks from the catacombs of Rome through councils, monasteries, reformations, revivals, and mission fields to the global church today — and separates what really happened from what's only tradition.

Written for teenagers ages 13–18, this book has twelve chapters, each opening with an illustration and closing with a Do, a Reflect, and a Pray. All Scripture is quoted from the King James Version (KJV). It ends with a Gospel Invitation that helps a teenager understand how to begin following Jesus.
