It’s never too early to introduce the next generation to some of the heroes of faith. In this book, children will meet 52 Christian men and women (one for each week of the year) from all walks of life who wanted to live for their friend Jesus. There are missionaries, martyrs and writers such as Brother Andrew, William Tyndale and C.S. Lewis. There are reformers, politicians and artists such as Martin Luther, William Wilberforce and Rembrandt. The stories or these men and women are exciting and inspiring and will show children that any of Jesus’ friends can do remarkable things for Him - even them!
