Born and raised in the vibrant city of Chicago, Robby Fakhouri paved his own path to success, overcoming numerous obstacles along the way. With an innate passion for knowledge and his sights set high, he persevered through his studies and graduated from law school at the age of 23. Fueled by the desire to make a difference and help his family, he selflessly opened his own law practice just two years later, at the age of 25.

B. B. Warfield is well known as one of America’s leading theologians, perhaps second only to Jonathan Edwards. But until now the character of his own Christian experience and his understanding of the Christian life have remained unexplored. Fred Zaspel unpacks these for us here, and what we find is that Warfield’s profound theological mind is matched only by his passionate heart for Christ. From Warfield we learn truly what it is to live in light of the gospel.

Adoniram Judson, a figure of intimidating success and legacy, receives a worthy telling of his story in this memoir by J. Clement. Clement describes Judson’s thirst for theological knowledge, his understanding and acceptance of salvation, and his journey into and on the mission field.

The listener is taken through a myriad of experiences of a young man coming of age in mid-20th century America.

This is the story of a new kind of hero: a man who has achieved extraordinary victories in his life—not with weapons, but with moral and spiritual courage. “Where are the heroes of today?” ask those who feel a yearning for examples of inspiring men and women after which to model our lives. The life of Swami Kriyananda is the story of a modern-day hero—a man who has, to an amazing degree, demonstrated spiritual courage, determination in the face of great obstacles, and personal sacrifice for an ideal.

The world needs saints to show it the way to true humanity. The church needs saints to show it how to live out its calling. The witness of the lives of the saints is a powerful testimony to the reality of God’s plan and the possibility for truly following it in one’s life. So often, we do not see this witness. We see hypocrisy and mediocrity among Christians. That is why we must look to the saints - the ones who really followed the words of Christ and let them be carried out fully in their lives. The saints also give us a reason to hope.

Jack Call gives a detailed account of what his life was like during the years from 1972 through 1978, as a follower of Art Kleps, the Chief Boo Hoo of the Neo-American Church, whose members subscribe to the belief that psychedelics such as LSD are sacraments, in that they encourage the realization that life is a dream. This true story has many surprising twists and turns, but ends, predictably in hindsight, in disillusionment.

Nation of Islam leader Elijah Muhammad became famous for his popularization of an Afrocentric branch of Islam. In later years, however, the movement came under fire after critics pointed out that its ideology had very little to do with the mainstream faith. Nevertheless, Elijah’s words and teachings still managed to galvanize and capture the hearts of millions of disaffected and oppressed African Americans. During the movement’s heyday in the 1950s and 1960s, Elijah extended his hand to a downtrodden people in a way that few others could.
