Men of the Bible: and What Made Them Great - Paperback

by Woody Stieffel (Author)

This book is for men in pursuit of character. It presents Bible-based principles on building one's own manhood. Greatness is just a byproduct, and comes as God chooses. This book has no guidelines on how to gain popularity or wealth. A man could get both of these and completely miss character or greatness. "It is what a man is, more than what he has, that renders him truly great." (Matthew Henry, 1706)

Bible stories of nine great men are paraphrased and told in a contemporary, entertaining style. Among other things, this book will nicely supplement your Bible knowledge. Sprinkled throughout are true stories illustrating the principles being discussed. A little humor is mixed in to keep it enjoyable. Another goal of this book is to build a fascination of God's holy book in the readers. It is hoped that each reader will see the kind of treasures to be found in it. May you become a life-long fan of His book.

The author's use of memorable Biblical events is remarkable and provokes thoughtful contemplation. Not only does this thoroughly researched book provide a wealth of teaching, it is one of the few works devoted solely to men's character development and spiritual advancement.
