Produced by Nick Hodson of London, England "One Snowy Night" by Emily Sarah Holt is a historical novel likely written in the late 19th century. The book explores the first persecution of Christians in England by fellow Christians, centering on figures such as Gerhardt. It delves into themes of faith, compassion, and societal prejudices during an era of religious turmoil. The opening of "One Snowy Night" introduces readers to the daily life of a family in 12th century Oxford, focusing initially on the mother, Isel, and her children, particularly Flemild. As they attempt to undertake their routine tasks, they express concern over their missing family members, prompting young Flemild to venture out with her sister to gather water from the well. Along the way, they encounter a group of foreign strangers who seek shelter in Oxford, culminating in Flemild's compassionate act of offering her home for those in need. The initial chapters set a tone of struggle, resilience, and a growing sense of community amidst burgeoning tensions in a deeply divided society.
