32 Christians Who Changed Their World

The Christian faith is a call to adventure. Be inspired by these thirty-two saints and give thanks for their faithful stories. Now go and do likewise where God has put you.

For two thousand years, average Christians have been transforming culture, and this collection of stories by Dr. Glenn Sunshine tells some of those stories. Men like Robert Grosseteste and Roger Bacon laid the foundations for science. Political figures like Abba Enbaqom and Sorghaghtani Beki (daughter-in-law of Genghis Khan) promoted Christianity in societies hostile to it. Christians like Roque González and Solomon Plaatje opposed racial oppression, and heroes like Andre Trocme and Ho Fengshan helped Jews escape the Holocaust.

These men and women all have stories that show how broad and transformative the Christian faith really has been on the world. Learn these stories and be like them.

Heralds of the Reformation

Why do we have Bibles in our own language everywhere? Why is the Gospel preached from the depths of Africa to the remotest parts of the Himalayas? It is because heroes of the faith gave their lives to bring the Word of God to the world.

The Reformation was an era with many examples of remarkable faithfulness, courage, and learning. However, few Christians today are familiar with their spiritual ancestors, the men who are responsible not only for much of our current understanding of the Bible and the Christian gospel, but also for the massive explosion of the Gospel all over the world today. If we want to continue to bear witness to the truth as faithfully as our fathers in the faith, we need to know their stories. Hannula's book includes thirty short, but profound stories of Reformation-era courage. They can easily be read aloud to children or used by homeschoolers as part of their curriculum. Additionally, this book includes an overview of key events in the Reformation, a detailed Timeline from 1516 to 1598, seven short summaries of Reformation Basics, and comprehension questions and answers on all thirty biographies.

Radiant

Your family will be fascinated and fed by these fifty true stories of great Christian women throughout history.

From South America to Europe, from China to Africa to the Wild West, in prisons and in throne rooms, many great Christians have left a stunning legacy for their successors. These short and moving biographies for young people introduce fifty often unfamiliar champions of the faith: women like Ida Kahn, who opened the first hospital in a Chinese city of 300,000 people; Lady Anne Hamilton, who rode with the Covenanter cavalry at the decisive Battle of Berwick; and Anngrace Taban, who was forced to type secret battle plans for the Sudan People's Liberation Army. In a culture where women's role in society is often at question, these examples of faithfulness can remind us that courage and godliness are possible anywhere, even if you are surrounded by Muslim raiders, Japanese guards, Nazis, or cannibals.

Spot on

The author has diagnosed a rampant problem in America today. A problem that easily slips under the radar of most people.

Wife loved it. She is much more in to hymn books than I am

As noted, bought this for my wife. (Got the No Quarter November hat for myself.) A well constructed hymnal, and my wife really likes the hymns, especially the theological content of the lyrics. A good addition to her mostly Baptist collection of hymnals.

Quality hat, quality design

Just what I need to cover my balding head and project the desired brand, image, whatever you call it. A well constructed hat that fits my head well.

The perfect sweatshirt.

Great fabric, great fit. Christ is King!

No Quarters Given

This hat shines like Moses' face when I wear out in public in NorCal.

Crispin's Rainy Day

Wonderful read

The 2024 Bucky Irving of 2024 books geared toward Christian women in the tone of Brother Jack.

Brother Jack is a great song by Gable Price and Friends.
Brother Jack can also be a moniker for the big homie C.S.L.

In this book, you'll come across neither. But wait! Its great, dont worry.
Im feeling punchy right now due to the lack of sleep. Im lacking sleep due to the remodel im conducting. Im conducting a remodel to have a coastal home for my family. I have a family because God is gracious and saw fit to bless this rambling fool despite the ability to write traditional reviews.

Buy My Dear Hemlock. Do it! (Shia style)

In all honesty, this book is the best new book ive read since Crispins Rainy Day. Shout out to Forest! I dont know him, but it be a lot cooler if I did. (Mathew McConaughey)

Get this book, the color pallet and marketing is incredible, and the content is even better. Must have for the Holiday season.

Fantastic hats

My husband and teenage son love wearing these hats. They get lots of questions, and have had to develop a clear explanation of NQN movement. My two college sons said their dad looks like a ‘cool dad’ in this hat . Haha!

My 10 year old son will be so excited on Christmas.

Everyone gets this book for Christmas!

I loved it so much that I bought six of them!

Awesome book, especially the art. Very studio Ghibli. Also love that it rhymes

Love them!

We’re so glad to get these!

It's a fun hat! Only bit of negative feedback would be that the fabric on the bottom or the hat is fairly coarse, which causes some discomfort when it rubs on the ears.

Spectacular Hat!

I love everything about this hat! The dye of the wool/blend, first of all, is beautiful. Very rich and vibrant. The stitching is perfect, even the logo both outside the hat, and the tag on the inside just have such a quality look and feel. I’ve paid twice as much for a hat like this and not been as happy. very classy! Keep up the good work - it’s not everyday you stumble upon quality this good.

True Sons

This topic isn’t talked about enough and Doug (also my with others) are just getting the ball rolling. Someone needs to take a stand for fathers and fathers need to take a stand. True sons of true fathers will take this world.

As a woman, this rang so true!! Well done! I wish every young woman would read this!!

Boisterous

I love the levity around danger. Helps my boys be brave and silly in a way that speaks to them. Very original. I look forward to reading this not just to my sons, but to my grandsons someday.

Excellent children's book

This is already a favorite with my 3yr old grandson. The story is God fearing, relevant to our culture's current sins, engaging and memorable. The art work is well done and enjoyable to both child and adult.

Read them 1 at a time.

I was surprised to find out this that this particular collection was wrought with heavy ideas. I found that I could only read 1-2 chapters without feeling like I needed to stop to soak it all in. However, this is a blessing because I have something I have to keep coming back to complete.

I’m a “worship leader” in a lutheran church with stronger evangelical/pentecostal leanings and I recommend this book to ANY church that is struggling to find the identity of their worship service. Music is a big part of that.

Also, Mr. Wilson speaks on listening to “worldly” music. As a pentecostal, this is a no no. As in sin. But mr. Wilson takes the time to explain the actual reasons behind it. Something a youth pastor could definitely hold a discussion with.

Anyway. Recommend.
Why 4 stars? I don’t want to be accused of being a fan boy. Which I accuse myself of being. Sorry about the rating. I hope it doesn’t come back to haunt me.
