Issue 22. Waldensians: Medieval "Evangelicals"
Summary
Founded by Waldo of Lyons, the non-sectarian movement known as the Waldensians has a chaotic history defined by unassailable perseverance in the midst of poverty and war. Their story of radical devotion to the gospel begins well before the Protestant Reformation and is based on three primary elements: adherence to Christ's words, voluntary poverty, and public evangelism. The perilous journey of faith which results is chronicled in this gripping issue of Christian History & Biography.
