Wielding the Sword is a great introduction to the men who preached and the women who taught God's Word from the early church and throughout history. They stood up to heresy and oppression to show the Gospel to the world in a way that we can look up to today.
We are able to understand what really happened to Jesus by setting his story in modern times. This is an interesting and educational read. It is a good companion to the popular "E-mail Jesus @ Bethlehem".
