Children of all ages will be inspired by the stories of these men: -C.S. Lewis—professor and author of the influential Chronicles of Narnia series -Zhang Boli—Chinese dissident, journalist, and Christian pastor -Richard Allen—former slave and founder of the African Methodist Episcopal Church -Tim Tebow—athlete, Heisman trophy winner, and outspoken follower of Christ -Father Damien—a priest who dedicated his life to helping lepers in Hawaii These and the 45 other defenders of the faith featured in this book have made a profound impact on the world around them and, in many cases, changed the course of history. Strong, smart, and sometimes outspoken, these men are tremendous examples of God’s love in action. These inspiring profiles will captivate kids’ imaginations and encourage them to discover their own gifts and how they can use them to glorify God.
