1587
Today, on 18 April, we remember the life and legacy of John Foxe (1516–1587), a beacon of light in the history of the Protestant Reformation. Renowned for his seminal work, Foxe’s Book of Martyrs, Foxe meticulously documented the courage and steadfast faith of those who suffered for the Gospel.
Despite facing adversity, including being denounced as a heretic and disowned by his family, Foxe’s unwavering commitment to truth and his scholarly pursuits illuminated the controversies and triumphs of the Reformation era. His interactions with prominent figures and his enduring contributions remind us of the power of faith and the importance of preserving the stories of those who have gone before us.
As we reflect on his profound quotes and achievements, let us honour Foxe’s memory by continuing to stand firm in our faith and uphold the truths of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
