I am going to a conference next week and Eric Metaxas is going to be the key note speaker. I have read one of his books already and wanted to sneak one more in before I leave. This book has Joan of Arc, Susanna Wesley, Hannah More, Saint Maria of Paris, Corrie ten Boom, Rosa Parks and Mother Teresa.
