Many Christians know what happened to Jesus, but not many know what happened to the twelve apostles. Many are unaware of their struggles after the book of Acts and of their gruesome martyrdoms. In this episode, I read the lives of these men from the Prologue of Orchid! These stories are very brutal, so the listener's discretion is advised.
