The generation of today needs heroes-people of substance and depth, not just celebrities. People whose lives we can admire, respect, and look to for inspiration. This book includes over one hundred biographical sketches of heroic men and women-some significant, some unknown, some biblical, some historical, and some contemporary-but all worthy of discovering and emulating. Includes: Abraham, John Newton, Evangeline Booth, Elijah, Mary Slessor, William Carey, C.S. Lewis, Jesus, Amy Carmichael, George Muller, Mary, the Mother of Jesus and many more. Organized by character traits such as courage, determination, forgiveness, purity, and trust, each sketch includes an application section with three thought-provoking questions based on the life of the person profiled. If you enjoy reading inspiring life stories about devoted men and women of God, Heroes is for you. - from Amzon
