Book: Closer to the FireCloser to the Fire: Lessons from the Persecuted Church

We often feel so far removed from persecution in North America that it can be hard to relate to those suffering for their faith in Jesus. In Closer to the Fire, journey with VOMC’s Greg Musselman as he introduces Christians he has interviewed from around the world and shares how their stories of faithfulness amid persecution have impacted his life. This book will help you connect with and learn from our brothers and sisters who face opposition today for Christ’s sake.
