In Seven Men, New York Times bestselling author Eric Metaxas
presents seven exquisitely crafted portraits of widely known--but
not well understood--Christian men, each of whom uniquely showcases
a commitment to live by certain virtues in the truth of the gospel.
Each of the seven men profiled--George Washington, William
Wilberforce, Eric Liddell, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Jackie Robinson,
John Paul II, and Charles Colson--call us to a more elevated way of
living, one that embodies the gospel in the world around us. All
seven biographies represent the life of a man who experienced the
struggles and challenges to be strong in the face of forces and
circumstances that would have destroyed the resolve of lesser men.
Seven Men asks and answers pressing questions, including: What does
it take to be a true exemplar as a father, brother, husband,
leader, coach, counselor, change agent, and wise man? What does it
mean to stand for honesty, courage, and charity? Written in a
beautiful and engaging style, Seven Men addresses what it means to
be a man today, at a time when media and popular culture present
images of masculinity that are not the picture presented in
Scripture and historic civil life--encouraging us to think
critically, act honorably, and lead by example. Praise for Seven
Men: "This is a book to read, to read aloud to others, and then
read again. In a day when children are growing up stunted because
of our diet of empty-headed celebrities and contemptible villains,
true heroism and manliness needs special nourishment. Eric Metaxas
has done it again, and again we are in his debt." --Os Guinness,
author of A Free People's Suicide "What is true manhood? And what
makes a man in our 21st century? These are vital questions that my
friend Eric Metaxas helps us wrestle with in this great new book.
In looking back to seven outstanding men of history, Eric helps us
understand the essential elements of manhood in any age. This is a
superb work--and I highly recommend it." --The Hon. Gregory W.
