I downloaded this for my Kindle and in my Wordsearch library to use as daily entries. Generally, the Christian writing community doesn't have a problem as long as I am not profiting from the usage. That said, I also tagged each post with the source and added extra graphics. ( ) Great collection of short biographies. The title is correct, these are names of people who have shaped the world as we know it and should be known as a matter of cultural literacy at a minimum. The author admits that some might be considered 'Christian' in name only (e.g. Henry VIII), and certainly, everyone will have their list of omissions, but this is still a great starting place. This is not in depth--the longest biography is just 4 pages and some are barely a full page, but these are the people that you hear of in history and have earned their place there. Read it for what it is--a brief introduction to some of the greatest names of Christendom, and let it whet your appetite for deeper birgraphies of these people or for more breadth of great Christians. This book is a spectacular introduction to so many of the influential personalities of the Christian Faith through history. The stories are inspirational, true. But more, this is the kind of resource that helps us understand what God has been doing all these years, and what kind of people he calls to do join in with that work, meaning that this book gives us a wonderful interdenominational picture of what God is like. That which God loves and values is captured here in story again and again. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
