Drowned for Obedience: The Martyrdom of Elizabeth Dirks and the True Cost of Following Christ -1557
On January 15, 1557, Elizabeth Dirks was drowned for her faith after refusing to recant her obedience to Christ. Her story confronts a hard truth: much of what passes for Christianity has never been tested. Elizabeth did not live for comfort, approval, or safety. She believed Jesus was Lord and that obedience mattered more than life itself. Her quiet faith still speaks to the church today.
