Summary: A sampling of martyr accounts from Martyrs Mirror.
Comment: ON FIRE FOR CHRIST is to MARTYRS MIRROR what a movie trailer is to the movie. MARTYRS MIRROR, written in 1660, is 1150+ pages revealing the history of the Christian doctrine and martyrs from the time of Christ forward. The majority of the book focuses on Anibaptist martyrs.

ON FIRE FOR CHRIST reviews the history of MARTYRS MIRROR, its author, and the anibaptists. It then presents 15 accounts of martyrs from MARTYRS MIRROR. The authors rewrote each story from fictional standpoints, presenting them from the point of view of someone in the story. This method makes the stories more enjoyable to read for most people. Most of the accounts are well written, though the authors added too much fluff (for my tastes) in a few of the stories.

MARTYRS MIRROR, at 1100+ pages, is well worth the read. However, if you are daunted by the size, then ON FIRE FOR CHRIST will give you a good sampling of it without being overwhelming. I do recommend it. 184 pages, illustrated.
