This history details the impact of the Protestant Reformation in Italy and its suppression by the Inquisition. Interestingly, prior to the Inquisition, Bible teaching thrived in cosmopolitan cities like Venice. But after the Inquisition, much of the story becomes that of refugees, as evangelicals who could not make it across the Alps to Switzerland faced certain torture and death. The stories of those who forsook the wealth of Italy to minister in poor, mountain villages, deeply grateful for their newfound religious liberty, are quite moving.
