Anabaptist History and Theology: Revised Student Edition follows the same narrative format and story line as the unabridged book. But the text has been completely rewritten and redesigned to meet the needs of the non-specialist reader. This second, revised edition features larger print and numerous sidebars and text boxes.

Includes an appendix on Anabaptist historiography, a bibliography,and a comprehensive index.

But Bibles in the vernacular language did not come without a price, and Elaine and her cousins found themselves facing risks that they never dreamed of, with a peace in the midst of it all that they could not explain. They learned to look past the tangled present into the unseen--into the eternity.

Never again would Elaine's life be calm and predictable, but the words that she learned to treasure still shone clear; that no matter what the circumstances or how high the price, we are His witnesses.

The inspiration for this story comes from the Martyr's Mirror where the story of John and Peter's martyrdom is recorded. The unnamed girl in that account the author called Elaine. Leonhard Keyser's story is also factual. The rest of the characters and the majority of the story plot are fictional.

One interesting thing about church history is how often young people were such strong, faithful witnesses. Their stories show us that we don't need to wait until we are thirty or so to throw our lives wholeheartedly into the cause of the Kingdom. The Lord calls us to follow Him-now! May this story draw our hearts to Him, and may He receive all the praise.
