Enoch Burke’s Release from Prison and the Cost of Christian Conviction.
The release of Enoch Burke from Mountjoy Prison has brought deep relief to his family and to many Christians around the world who prayed faithfully for him. His imprisonment was not the result of violence, hatred, or neglect of duty, but flowed from a refusal to use language that contradicted his Christian beliefs about truth, sex, and the nature of the human person.
