Pastor’s Book Review

30 May 2015
Pastor DiMeolo

“7 Men and their Secrets of Greatness”
by
Eric Metaxas

We are living in a day and age where men of all ages are starving for real heroes to emulate.  Should we be surprised by the onslaught of “super hero” movies currently coming from the movie industry?  We are given a steady diet of celebrities and athletes whose lifestyles and examples are far from encouraging or inspiring.

With this in mind, I would like to introduce you to a book whose pages are filled with great inspiration.   Eric Metaxas has done it again with his excellent writing style and phenomenal research.  “7 Men and their Secrets of Greatness” gives us insight into the lives of 7 men of great character.  Be inspired and challenged as you read about George Washington, William Wilberforce, Eric Liddell, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Jackie Robinson, Pope John Paul II, and Charles Colson.

From the New York Times Best Sellers’ author of “Bonhoeffer”, Eric Metaxas hits another home run.  I highly recommend this book, especially to our men!

Captured & Kept By His Grace,

Pastor Greg

I Corinthians 15:54b-57

“Death is swallowed up in victory. O death where is   your victory? O death, where is your sting?

The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.  But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
