Faithful Resistance

Faithful Resistance traces the story of conscience through Scripture, history, and the crises of our own age. From the seat of Moses to the courts of Rome, from Luther before the emperor to the pilgrims crossing the Atlantic, Mike Henderson shows how God preserves moral order through ordinary believers who refuse to bow to falsehood. In a time when coercion is rising and confusion is spreading, this book calls Christians back to the first jurisdiction God ever gave--conscience under his word. Henderson shows how authority functions when rightly ordered, how it collapses when confused, and how faithful men and women can resist evil without becoming it. Neither political manifesto nor academic treatise, Faithful Resistance is a clear, steady invitation to courage: to keep the conscience free, to stand in truth without rage or fear, and to guard the moral foundations that sustain both church and nation. This is the story of how light has always defeated darkness--and how it must again.
