Fascinating accounts

The author gives great details about famous people who were Christians, but including people I hadn't heard of. The narrator did an excellent job pronouncing foreign names.

What a book!

This is a book about some pretty famous people in the world history that did some pretty impactful things with their lives. The common thread of all of these individuals is their faith in God. It’s motivational to get out there make an impact, it’s encouraging to read, and It can also be reflective of one’s own life. What are your priorities, what is your life reflect at this point? Questions to ask yourself where is God in your life? It also shows how we really need God in our lives to do great things.

Very Informative book!

Learned A Lot

Biographies are my favorite genre. Since this contained 10 in 1, it was like a binge without the guilt. God has made amazing people and some, including these 10, have been faithful enough to shine His glory for the world to see!!

Encouraging

A wonderful insight into the lives of some world changing people. Thank you for the encouragement.
