An update to Foxe's book of martyrs, Rev. Johnnie Moore's new book includes stories of Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant Christians who died for their faith throughout the years.
Martyrs are"willing to die for a Christianity that we're barely willing to live for…. Sometimes we decide to be quiet about our faith, because it's controversial to be a Christian or our views aren't accepted sometimes in mainstream culture," Moore said.
But Moore and Pattengale took a somewhat different approach in their update, based on observations that when Islamic terrorists attack Christian churches in the modern day,"they don't look for the Catholics or the Protestants or the evangelicals or the Baptist or any of these things. They just look for the cross," said Moore.
But in other periods of history covered in the book, the stories of Catholic and non-Catholic martyrs are intermixed.
