This book has seven short biographies of what the author believes  is their secret of greatness

These men are from varied times in history and various occupations.  This book is published by Thomas Nelson is 194 pages.

The men are George Washington, William Wilberforce, Eric Liddell, Jackie Robinson, Pope John Paul II, and Charles Colson.

The author is a believer and writes from that perspective.  Six of the men are born again, but from my standpoint I am not convinced about Pope Paul.  I highly recommend it as a great study on the essential qualities of what is manliness in any age or circumstance.

I am also reading his much larger work Bonhoeffer  [Pastor Martyr, Prophet, Spy] [575 pages.

 Erwin W. Lutzer, who served Moody Church in Chicago as their Senior pastor for over 25 years has written a biblical perspective of several topics: dealing with death and the after life, reincarnation and near death experiences, hell, purgatory,  our ascent to glory, what it will be like, our new home the New Jerusalem, death by suicide and finishes with a great chapter on where you will go when you die. This small  book of only 185 pages is well done and needs to be read by everyone of us who will die someday.

I have read other books on Heaven and Death and Dying but this one is well written and can be helpful to those who have unbiblical views or needs to prepare for that day sometime in the future when we all go behind the curtain into eternity.
