Description

We have all read the stories of men and women who have achieved unbelievable success  through their relentless pursuit of some goal or ambition. The characters described in this volume were also relentless in the pursuit of their goal–to know their God!  This knowledge was not theoretical but practical in its astounding affect upon those possessing it and the lives they influenced. The more they came to understand His ways and character, the more they were challenged to give themselves to God in a tireless effort to make all men know “the riches of His grace.” Their histories enrich us by that same delightful variety we discover in all of God’s creation. In the foreword, the authors, Edwin F. & Lillian G. Harvey write: “We do not submit these sketches that they should be imitated in detail as to their search for God, or as to their evidence of that attainment. We pray rather that their faith and courage, in proving and knowing God, might encourage us to realize there is no limit, except in ourselves, to what we might discover of His kingdom while here in “time.”
