  • Summary

  • In Chapter 21 of Foxe’s Book of Martyrs, we explore the harrowing story of the French Protestants in the South of France during the early 19th century, focusing on the brutal persecutions they faced in the years 1814 and 1820. This episode brings to light the religious and political tensions of the time, as Protestant communities faced violent opposition from both the Catholic majority and governmental forces.

    Through personal accounts of suffering, including imprisonments, executions, and forced conversions, we’ll examine the resilience of the Huguenots who, despite enduring severe trials, refused to compromise their faith. The chapter offers a poignant reminder of the cost of religious freedom and the tenacity of believers who stand firm in the face of violent opposition.

    Join us as we uncover the struggles of the French Protestants in this dark chapter of history, and reflect on the enduring lessons of perseverance, courage, and unwavering faith.
