## Resource

The Geneva Bible helped build America, and most Christians have never heard its story. Kirk traces the history of Bible translation from William Tyndale to the Pilgrims on the Mayflower, and why kings tried to burn and bury this book before it could reach ordinary people. The truth it contained was so dangerous that people smuggled it across borders, hid it in grain sacks, and read it by candlelight. No earthly authority owns your conscience.
