An ideal book for young children to be introduced to Men who have taken risks in pursuit of their faith in God. First a short piece setting the scene and telling who the ‘Risktaker’ is, then a story about them which explains what risks they took. They are Martin Luther who wrote books explaining why he objected to the teaching of the Catholic Church of the day, David Brainerd who shared the gospel with Red Indians in the U.S., William King who taught the Gospel and freed slaves from the southern states, Brother Andrew who smuggled Bibles behind the Iron Curtain and is still taking Bibles to forbidden places today, and Nehemiah and Stephen from the Bible. With enough facts to satisfy, but hopefully to arouse interest in finding out yet more. A ‘devotional thought’ accompanies each piece and there is a Quiz at the back to see if you have learnt from your reading, and a glossary to refer to if you did not understand a particular word.
