John Wesley, Men and Women of Faith Series
By Bethany
God needed a man like John Wesley for a particular time, a specific place
and a special purpose. Patiently He worked with this chosen instrument to
awaken, convict and redeem a nation. God breathed on his weakness and abilities
alike, giving him a hunger and thirst for holiness which would not be denied.
Criss-crossing his country an incredible quarter of a million miles astride
a horse, he preached at thousands of outdoor evangelistic meetings. In his
own pulpit, Wesley's pastoral and teaching ministry filled the pews and
spilled over to other congregations, eventually unifying into a strong church
body. |

Heroes of the Faith: Billy Sunday
By Barbour Publishing
By 1880,
baseball had taken America by storm. Into the galaxy of new athletic stars
came an Iowa farmbou, Billy Sunday, whose blazing speed earned him a job
with one of the top teams in baseball history-the Chicago White Stockings.
But the prestige was no match for the strains of a simple Christian hymn
upon the night air. Drawn to a revival service, Billy committed his life
to God. Soon, nothing topped his joy of bringing others to the Lord-and
he gave up his baseball career to become a compelling, innovative preacher.

The Autobiography of Charles G. Finney
By Charles G. Finney, edited by Helen Wessel / Bethany
In an age without amplifiers or mass communication, 19th century evangelist
Charles G. Finney's ministry changed the course of American Christianity.
His valuable insights on the work of the Holy Spirit and principles for
revival now inspire and encourage 21st century believers with a passion
for reaching their nations for Christ. Finney's autobiography was first

a century later, was condensed and updated while retaining the heart of
his amazing narrative, making the principles of revival easily understood
by contemporary readers. |
