Synopsis

In Fantastically Faithful Leaders Who Gave Their All for God, award-winning comedy writer and author Paul Kerensa brings to life eight extraordinary people from history who answered God's call to lead - and changed the world in the process.

Perfect for children aged 7 and up, this lively, laugh-out-loud chapter book introduces young readers to a wonderfully diverse group of real-life leaders who stepped up, spoke out, and served others - all because of their faith in God.

You will meet:

Sojourner Truth: a former slave who spoke out against slavery and for women's rights
Lord Shaftesbury: a social reformer who campaigned to prevent children from being sent out to work
Evangeline Booth: the first female leader of the Salvation Army who received a medal for her work to help soldiers during the First World War
Madam C. J. Walker: an African American business woman who was the first female self-made millionaire in the USA and who gave lots of her money to good causes
Billy Graham: an evangelist who preached the gospel all over the world and led millions to Jesus
John Glenn Jr: who rocketed into history as the first astronaut to orbit Earth and became a US Senator
Elizabeth II: a queen who faithfully served God and her people
Demond Tutu: a Archbishop who helped bring an end to apartheid in South Africa

Inside you'll also find:

* Bible memory verses to learn and treasure
* Reflection questions and activities to continue the fun
* A short prayer to close each story
* Witty black-and-white illustrations throughout

Whether used as a family read-aloud, for independent reading, a classroom resource, or a Sunday school supplement, this book gives children real-life role models who show what ordinary people can achieve when they trust an extraordinary God.
