The Story of the Waldenses, the 'People of the Valleys', is one of the most amazing stories in history. It is the story of men and women who lived in the scluded moutain valleys of the Italian Alps. Their only offense was that they refused to give up their Bibles for a different religion. When, every 50-80 years, their enemies came to take away their Faith--or their lives,--this humble people experienced help from God. But at other times they died. Yet whatever came--they were unyeilding in their faith, We know of no other story--anywhere--filled with so much courage and fortitude, that spanned so many centuries. For over a thousand years the Waldenses lived and died in their mountain valleys. But through it all they clung to their Bibles and to their God. |
