5.0 out of 5 stars
Inspiring and Well Written,
This review is from: Rescue and Redeem: Volume 5 Chronicles of the Modern Church (History Lives) (Paperback)
This fifth book in the series was my favorite of them all. They are smartly written and don't necessarily go for the most well known people of our time. I love how it is not totally American focused and spreads the stories over the globe with variety of characters, missions and lives. I love the whole series, but what a great book to inspire and enlighten our children about the Church and it's history.
