The persistence of Roger Williams is what really stood out to me throughout the entire reading. He is banished from Massachusetts for not giving up on his ideologies. He then fleas to Rhode Island, which is referred to a sanctuary in the book, and institutes his beliefs to the Native Americans that live there. He is able to teach some of them that there was only one God after they had been led to believe there were many Gods.
From being kicked out of an entire state to basically teaching people an entire religion, Williams is extremely persistent and I hope people realize this while reading about his life.
