The Coming End Times Martyrdom

About this episode

The episode explores historical figures who exemplified martyrdom and its relevance to the future.

This is a story about the people the world couldn't kill. In 177 AD, a slave girl terrified the Roman Empire. In 1536, a fugitive scholar broke the monopoly of a state church. They never met, yet God used them to overthrow empires. In an age of comfort and safety, the word "martyrdom" feels like a relic of the past—but what if it is actually the blueprint of our future?
