About the Book

Have you been inspired by characters from films like 'The Lord of the Rings' who did the right thing, no matter what the cost? Here are some real people from history who did just that! These ten girls grew up to become women who didn't 'give in'. Living as God would want them to was difficult but they chose to do the right thing instead of the easy thing. Would you give in or would you stand up for what you believed in? Blandina followed God and then because of her faith became a martyr; Perpetua was forced to give up her child and then died in a Roman amphitheatre; Lady Jane Grey did as she was told, almost became queen but in the end her faith was stronger; Anne Askew lost her home and family - but never her faith; Lysken Dirks loved her young husband and had a terrible choice to make but they loved God first; Marion Harvey discovered that following God to the end was not her greatest hardship; Margaret Wilson became an outlaw for Jesus but suffered the consequences; Judith Weinberg's declared love for God cost her, her life; Betty Stam's life was full of danger and eventually it caught up with her; Esther John made a decision to give her life to God and signed her own death warrant.

Review :

One little girl read these stories and wondered about how these girls could be so brave! That is what hits you in the face when you read about these characters - their courage, their uncompromising stance for God's truth and the God who gave them that truth in the first place. At a time when young christians around the world know what real persecution is, help your child to understand that not compromising is something that they can do.
Irene Howat writes with a real warmth and insight. In a world where role models of real integrity are few and far between the Lightkeeper's series fills the gap!

This book is a mixture of exciting, sad and challenging testimonies. I enjoyed reading about Blandina, Perpetua, Lady Jane Grey, Anna Askew, Lysken Dirks, Marian Harvey, Margaret Wilson, Judith Werghburg, Betty Stam and Esther John. These women loved their saviour and lived their lives which emulated Christ in many practical ways. I found this challenging because it made me think that I should stand out and tell people about God and not to have the fear of man but rather to have the first fear of man but rather to have first the fear of God. Life can be hard being a Christian at home or school, but with the Lord's strength and grace he enables us to shine forth as his light. I recommend this book to everyone, including Mums & Dads.

If you like this, you'll love these:

Take a look at the Torchbearer series, in particular -
Danger on the Hill - the story of Margaret Wilson.
A story of an eighteen year old girl's struggle with persecution. Her story lives on and it tells us to stand firm too.
