John Pollock's collection of short biographies of missionaries in different ages and countries - from the Bible to the present day, brings the characters of God's most unlikely servants vividly to life.

We shouldn't be surprised when we have the examples in the Bible of David and Saul of Tarsus! John Pollock's deft, biographical pen sweeps over great reformers, liberators and evangelists of the 18th and 19th centuries. He shows their spiritual development, often from unpromising beginnings, and encourages us to believe that God can use us too.
