They Knew Their God Vol. 5

Like others in this series, this volume tells of people who did exploits because “they knew their God.” The examples of these giants of the faith remind us, that we too, as Longfellow put it, “can make our lives sublime, and departing leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time.”
