The Pilgrims Part 1 - Persecuted Yet Prevailed

Those who wanted to read the Bible for themselves and who didn't toe the line of the official state religion in England in the late 1500s and early 1600s were persecuted for their beliefs. One particular group, which called themselves Separatists (and later became known as Pilgrims), decided they could no longer live in England and sought religious asylum in Holland. To learn more, we highly recommend Kirk Cameron's Monumental: In Search of America's National Treasure movie.
