Additional information
by Mike Henderson (Author)
Faithful Resistance traces the story of conscience through Scripture, history, and the crises of our own age. From the seat of Moses to the courts of Rome, from Luther before the emperor to the pilgrims crossing the Atlantic, Mike Henderson shows how God preserves moral order through ordinary believers who refuse to bow to falsehood.
In a time when coercion is rising and confusion is spreading, this book calls Christians back to the first jurisdiction God ever gave--conscience under his word. Henderson shows how authority functions when rightly ordered, how it collapses when confused, and how faithful men and women can resist evil without becoming it.
Neither political manifesto nor academic treatise, Faithful Resistance is a clear, steady invitation to courage: to keep the conscience free, to stand in truth without rage or fear, and to guard the moral foundations that sustain both church and nation.
This is the story of how light has always defeated darkness--and how it must again.
Author Biography
Mike Henderson is a Christian writer whose work brings theology, history, and moral reflection into conversation with the present age. His writing explores how divine authority and human conscience meet in the unfolding story of redemption--and how truth, once written on the heart, can still shape the life of a nation.
Now retired, Mike and his wife, Shirley, live a quiet life rooted in faith, family, and history. Both trace their family lines through the American Revolution and the Great Awakenings that shaped the nation's conscience. Their forebears stood in many of the struggles that defined America's moral and spiritual course--from the battlefields of liberty to the reformations of faith, even the trials of Salem that tested a community's soul.
Faithful Resistance: The Seat of Moses and the Story of Conscience in History grew from that heritage and from years of reflection on how authority, conscience, and grace move through the ages, calling each generation back to truth.
Together, Mike and Shirley continue to live what this book proclaims: a quiet faith that resists evil not with anger but with conscience anchored in Christ.
