Encounter faith tested through costly decisions.
Drawn from Saint Nicodemus the Hagiorite’s New Martyrology, these Orthodox martyr accounts follow people whose Christian confession was tested by imprisonment, threats, and death. Monks, tradespeople, priests, and lay readers meet in stories of fidelity and repentance. Nicodemus’s introductory counsel on discernment adds an essential dimension: steadfastness is considered together with spiritual guidance and the dangers of rash confidence.
