Product Description

▼▲
Polycarp; Alban; Sir John Oldcastle; Thomas Cranmer; George Wishart; James Chalmers; Dietrich Bonhoeffer; Nate Saint; Ivan Moiseyev; Graham Staines.

These ten boys grew up to become men who didn't give in. Living as a Christian for them was difficult but they chose to do the right thing instead of the easy thing. Would you give in or would you resist?

Polycarp was a slave but gave up freedom for Christ. Alban was in danger but did not bow to false gods. John Oldcastle's home was a hideout, but he would not hide his faith. Cranmer was afraid of death but showed courage. George Wishart was in prison but preached Jesus. James Chalmers brought the bible to cannibals despite the danger. Dietrich Bonhoffer feared death but would not be silent. Nate Saint flew into danger but knew it was worth it. Ivan Moiseyev obeyed the army but put God first. Graham Staines helped the sick, but died because he loved Jesus.

In a world where we give in too easily, be inspired by those who didn't! Recommended for ages 8 to 11.

Editorial Reviews

▼▲

"If you like this, you'll love these:
Try the torchbearers series that is aimed at 7-12 year olds in particular: Jim Elliot: He is no fool. 50 years after Jim Elliot and his four friends were murdered by the Auca indians the work of spreading the gospel still goes on with these people and Christ's name is now honoured."

-- Catherine Mackenzie, CF4K Editor (Author and CF4K Editor)
