hese stories about ten boys who grew up to become men who didn't give in, feature some well-known and lesser known names from Christian history.

Because of their individual circumstances, living as Christians for them was difficult, but they all chose to do the right thing instead of the easy thing.

Polycarp was freed from slavery but then gave up his freedom for Christ; Alban was in danger from Roman soldiers but still would not bow down to their gods;
John Oldcastle's home was a hiding place, but he would not hide his faith; Cranmer was afraid of death but ended up showing courage; George Wishart was thrown in prison but kept on preaching about Jesus;
James Chalmers brought the Bible to cannibals whatever the dangers; Dietrich Bonhoffer lived when people were frightened of speaking out but he would not be silent; Nate Saint flew into danger but knew it was worth it; Ivan Moiseyev obeyed his commanders but still put God first; Graham Staines lived to help leprosy patients, but died because he loved Jesus.
In a world where we give in too easily - be inspired by those who didn't!
