Synopsis:

Will John risk prison, torture, death, and his wife’s safety by defying the 17th century Church of England’s rigid laws to practice his own religion?

Based on a true story of love and loss and family and faith.

John adores his wife Hannah, the witty, educated vicar’s daughter. She’s the loving family he never had as a child. But even after she challenges his decision to put God before her, he falls into a world spiraling into hypocrisy, tyranny, and betrayal. When John comes face-to-face with his deep-seated convictions about religious freedom, he’s forced to make a hard choice—renounce his orders with the Church of England to become an outlawed Separatist or conform and save his marriage, his family, and his life.

Hannah refuses to break from her Anglican roots when John meets secretly with heretics. She’s left to wonder if he’ll comply and save their marriage. Does she love him enough if he does not?

To understand John’s and Hannah’s dramatic and inspiring tale, read The Pulse of His Soul. A love story for the ages.

Considered one of the most important ministers to follow in the footsteps of the Plymouth Pilgrims, John Lothropp helped plant the seeds of religious freedom in America’s soil and left a legacy of well-known individuals who influenced the nation’s destiny.

Also read the follow-up companion novella The Cry of Her Heart about Hannah’s sister Penninah Howse who attended John’s congregation.
