Book Reviews of Trial and Triumph: Stories from Church History
Book Review: A MUST have for kids (and adults)!
Summary: 5 Stars
An exceptionally well-done treatment of dozens of key leaders from the last 2,000 years of church history. Hannula combines fine storytelling with a solid Reformed, Evangelical treatment of people and events. His brief biographical sketches (4-6 pages each) are excellent summaries and introductions. Do you know of Blandina or Boniface or King Gustavus Adolphus? You should! And in "Trial and Triumph" you will be introduced to them in moving narratives of their service to Christ and of their abiding influence. And, of course, those like Constantine, Augustine, Gregory, Huss, Luther, Calvin, Knox, Bunyan, Whitefield, Livingstone, and Spurgeon are not overlooked. A total of forty-six stories are included. Throughout this engaging book the author presents our fathers and mothers in the faith, not as detached figures in church history, but as our ancestors in the faith---part of that "great cloud of witnesses" who make up our "family history" in Christ and who serve as examples for us to follow. As the author says in the introduction, "God's greatest works are not the creation of the mountains and seas but His acts of saving love, which transform sinners into children of God. These stories were not written to exalt great Christian men and women. They were written to exalt the Lord who made them great."
