Cover of The Pilgrim Church

The Pilgrim Church

This is the saga of those intrepid souls who were persecuted by civil authorities and denounced, defamed and decimated by the professing church. Who are the Waldensians? The Lollards? The Stundists? The Anabaptists? These were names given by to those who claimed only the name of Christ, and who were prepared to suffer for His cause rather than submit to those man-made traditions that they believed contradicted the Word of God.
