“Christopher Love was a brilliant young Welsh preacher and a rising star in the world of Puritan ministry. But in 1651, a nervous English government beheaded him on a charge of treason for involvement in a plan to raise money that might advance the restoring of the monarchy. ‘He died’, wrote Richard Baxter, ‘with as great alacrity and fearless quietness and freedom of speech, as if he had but gone to bed.’ Don Kistler reconstructs his story from original documents, including letters to and from his pregnant wife as his death-day approached. Stunning and heart-wrenching is the blend of sweetness, peace, love, and hope in nightmarish circumstances that the letters contain. This is a poignant account of victorious faith that will stir every reader.” – J.I. Packer
