 Our Description


Journey to ancient Carthage in North Africa to uncover the fascinating true story of a courageous young woman of the early church who dared to follow Jesus as her Lord in the face of Roman opposition. With the risk of certain death, Perpetua gave up wealth, freedom, and eventually life itself, rather than renounce her faith in Christ. Explore the cultural, political, and religious events surrounding this story of steadfast faith!

Join well-known Early Church expert Mike Aquilina as he traces the history and message of the timeless true story of this courageous young martyr and its relevance for us today. Containing footage shot at the actual sites where the story took place in Carthage, Tunisia, this documentary will inform as well as inspire.
