A Fresh Look at some of the Early Christian Martyrs – The Lowly Slave Girls – Heartrending stories of Faith, Freedom, and Courage A moving and emotional guide to little-known saints and martyrs – the servile and unprivileged slave girls – poor, humble, and simple – Remarkable women of unbelievable strength, courage, and integrity! They overcame all adversity and paid the highest price for faith and freedom! They were true heroes! They must be remembered! This book is focused on the women martyrs who were slaves, the people at the very bottom of the social strata, whose stories are both tragic and sad, but illustrate their stamina and determination to win freedom. They were richly honored by the early church – their stories are touching and moving – their strength and courage were immeasurable – their faith unwavering – and they provided a bit of hope and solace to a fallen world. Very little is known about these forgotten heroes. Their quest for both spiritual and physical freedom was unimaginable to most people today. Marginalized, denigrated, and persecuted, they climbed the highest ladder of all. They truly were of the greatest holiness and virtue, and deserve to be remembered and acknowledged for their 'heroic sanctity' by those of us still on our earthly journey. This is a book for all people who value faith, freedom, and equality – and want to see it preserved amidst secular, socialist, and divisive pressures – especially young women, immigrants, minorities, and people who feel marginalized, denigrated, and persecuted. Not just dry history, but riveting amazing stories from 33 to 313 AD! Heartbreaking, but at the same time inspiring! – Deep insights into the thoughts and acts of those who sacrificed everything for their religious belief, their personal liberty, and their intrinsic self-worth. Today's issues of Racism, Women's Rights, and Workers' Benefits are the modern outgrowths of ancient injustices. The early Christian church was not trying to revolutionize secular society, but it had a major influence on how slaves viewed their roles in life. Their stories must be told so that we can learn from history, and apply that knowledge appropriately to the issues being faced today.
