Children of Light: The Last Belief
In a world where faith is outlawed and mocked, even whispering the name of God brands you an outcast. Fourteen-year-old Elior Santos refuses to abandon his faith, no matter how harshly he is bullied, beaten, or silenced. By his side is his only friend, Kael Rivera-a fellow orphan who shares the same scars of ridicule, loneliness, and a government that has erased every trace of worship. But when the earth trembles and disaster strikes, the impossible happens: God's voice echoes across the world. Only the believers hear it, awakening hearts that had long been silent. Faith, once hidden in shame, becomes a rallying cry a call to arms for those chosen to resist the rising darkness. Elior and Kael are not the only ones who believe but they will find themselves at the center of this mission. Not because they sought greatness, but because destiny has marked them as leaders. Every trial they face will be met with blessings: strength in weakness, hope in despair, and light in the shadows. Together with other believers, they must survive persecution, government oppression, corrupted faith, and whispers of an ancient evil waiting to rise. Yet before they can rise as warriors of the Word, they must first endure the scorn of their generation and the tyranny of leaders who mock everything holy. > "Blessed are those who are mocked for righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:10
