Description
We know them for their philanthropy, their governance, medical discoveries, and advocacy, yet they were also Christians… and they led, spoke, directed, and lived through their faith. Highlighting 12 individuals from history who stood assured in their faith, each chapter is a minibiography making their faith known as a part of their story. If you have never brought biographical reading into your studies before this is a great one book resource to introduce students to biographies and individuals for further study. This text reads more like a narrative with engaging stories, letter correspondences, diary entries, and input from family and friends. 207 pgs, pb. ~Rebecca
