Summary:
Ten short biographies of Christian lives that still impact ourculture and lives today. In a book titled 10 Christians Everyone
Should Know, one would expect to find writings on such fine souls as
Saints Patrick and Nicholas. But some surprises are in store, for
this little tome holds unexpected short biographical gems such as
that of Jane Austen, whose steadfast faith was the undercurrent in
her writings. And then there is Sir Isaac Newton, who changed physics
from a purely philosophical subject into one involving mathematics
and careful observation, but who actually wrote more on theology than
physics. Then there is William F. Buckley, who inspired and incited
three generations of Americans to engage more actively in public
life, while personally pursuing a quiet but devout faith in Jesus
Christ. Through their relationships, struggles, prayers, and desires,
each person profiled uniquely illuminates our shared experience. We
are now living in the world they created and understand both it and
ourselves better in the light of their lives. 10 Christians Everyone
Should Know also includes: Anne Bradstreet D. L. Moody Galileo George
Washington Carver Johann Sebastian Bach John Bunyan
