About this book

George Lisle: A Faith That Couldn't Be Denied documents the pioneers of a nation. Three generations of men and women who, led and inspired by the ministry of George Lisle, advocated for a nation, from enslavement to emancipation and beyond. This work offers insight into a people and a movement who, in facing the most heinous and violent conditions, demonstrated boldness, bravery, self-sacrifice, and faith beyond measure as they sought to achieve freedom for generations of people who they knew they would never meet.
