Spanish Brothers, The
$30.00
The Spanish Brothers is part of the Epic Collection
“Persecution bursts suddenly upon the secret converts in Seville. Carlos was imprisoned and put to the Question, but no tortures could induce him to deny his Lord, or betray his friends.” The Inquisition. The Question. The horrors of the auto-da-fe. Through the courageous fortitude of great heroes and heroines of faith, The Spanish Brothers lifts the soul clear above the anguish to the glory that we know and believe in, strengthening our faith and inspiring us to press on.
This true account of the Spanish Inquisition will leave you speechless. The conviction and courage demonstrated by sixteenth-century believers puts our present-day calamities in perspective, sharply, yet gently reminding us of the truth of the Word and the power of our Savior’s love. All else pales in comparison.
The Spanish Brothers is a passionate book, a riveting work. It is historical, bringing us into the very presence of the individuals—ordinary yet extraordinary—who faltered neither in their faith nor their love for the One who is Truth. Their lives transcend this finite world and take us to higher ground, upon which we can—and will—rejoice forever.

Extremely Informative! The Spanish Brothers is a great story with a great look into our History as Christians. I enjoyed the faithfulness of Carlos to both his brother and to his God. We can learn so much from this story! A must read for Christians, History lovers, and anyone who wants to be “Called, Chosen, and Faithful “.

Transcendent The Spanish Brothers surpasses the best of historical Christian novels in vividness, poignancy, and power. The gospel is displayed in brilliant clarity contrasted to the darkness of the Spanish Inquisition. The darker the world is, the brighter the Truth shines, and the author demonstrates this beautifully.
What struck me most was the book’s grasp on eternity, not as a distant concept but a present reality from which mortal doubts and fears hide in shame. Infused with eternal perspective, The Spanish Brothers is centered around the compelling imperative to lose all for Christ. All the pain and agony Carlo endured were but “momentary, light affliction” which ultimately produced for him “an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison” (2 Cor 4:17).
The gospel message presented is perhaps best summarized by Martin Luther: “Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also; the body they may kill: God’s truth abideth still— His kingdom is forever!”
