Description of Todd Temple, author of People Who Shaped the Church:

There are books that inform. There are books that inspire. This one does both. More than forty-five giants of the Christian faith come to life in these dramatic pages: Amy Carmichael, Charles Colson, James Dobson, Billy Graham, Martin Luther King, Jr, Mother Teresa, Francis Schaeffer, Billy Sunday, Joni Eareckson Tada and many more fascinating people. During the twentieth century God used their lives and their legacies to shape today's church. You'll meet each of them in this compact but detailed volume. Each biography can be read quickly--but you'll find it difficult to stop with just one.
