N2  - This young mother, along with other new believers, held firm in her faith against the Roman Empire and paid the ultimate price with her life. We journey to ancient Carthage in North Africa to uncover the fascinating true story of a courageous young woman of the early church who dared to claim Jesus as her Lord in the face of Roman opposition. Faced with the risk of death, Perpetua gave up wealth, freedom, and even life itself, rather than renounce her faith in Christ. Explore the cultural, political and religious events surrounding this story of steadfast faith! Join well-known early church experts Dr. Rex Butler and Dr. John Mark Yeats as they trace the history and message of this timeless true story and its relevance for us today. Included is footage shot at the actual sites where the story took place in Carthage, Tunisia. - Container
