Heroes Of The Holy Life,
By Ms.KitKat (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Heroes of the Holy Life (Paperback)
This is a good book of limited Christian biographies. Some stories are more detailed than others, but it is a nice sampling to give you a taste of the respected lives of some heroes of the faith who have come before this generation. Communication and shipping are just as promised by the vendor.

This review is from: Heroes of the Holy Life (Paperback)
This group of true accounts of God's hand working in the lives of "regular" men and women who love Him is wonderful. Very inspirational... a must read for TODAY! God is still at work in the lives of men!
