A Company of Heroes: Portraits from the Gospel’s Global Advance

By Tim Keesee – Foreword by Tim Challies

“Keesee is truly a frontlines brother in Christ who tells it like it is on the battlefield.” – Joni Eareckson Tada
“All Christians should read this book.” – Rosaria Butterfield

Across the globe, the gospel is advancing—often in places most of us will never go—through ordinary believers living with extraordinary courage.

In A Company of Heroes, missions journalist Tim Keesee takes you into twenty different countries to witness the faith of Christians who are risking everything for the gospel. These are not larger-than-life saints—they are pastors, parents, and pioneers who’ve been transformed by Christ and are now transforming their communities.

With gripping storytelling and deep compassion, Keesee introduces readers to a global family of faithful witnesses. From war-torn Bosnia to the underground church in the Middle East, their stories of sacrifice, endurance, and joy in suffering will stir your soul and challenge your faith.

Why We Love It:
This book is a bold reminder that Jesus is alive and building His Church in every corner of the earth. Tim Keesee writes with humility, clarity, and first-hand knowledge—inviting us to see the gospel not just as a message, but as a movement still changing lives today. It’s deeply inspiring and impossible to read without being stirred to live with greater purpose and obedience.

Perfect For:

• Believers passionate about missions and global church movements
• Readers looking for real-life encouragement and challenge
• Those stepping into ministry, leadership, or cross-cultural service
• A powerful gift for teens, young adults, and mature believers alike
