Author Description

When I think of the people I admire for their faith, what I really admire is the way they live. They respond the right way more often than not. They navigate complication with wisdom and grace. They live with consistent obedience and fidelity. They have a godly maturity that has been forged by repeatedly practicing godliness.I've spent my life getting acquainted with people who have practiced godliness over time. Some of these are my friends, some are my heroes and mentors, some are from the long history of Christian spirituality that stretches back to the time of the Bible. This book is a collection of their stories. My hope is that you, like me, will be inspired by the stories of men and women who lived differently and became godly as a result of their actions. If you read this book and commit yourself to the consistent practice of godliness over time, you will become more godly as well. The people whose stories will be told in this book all possess a consistent, endless, nonstop ambition to follow God. They are relentless. You can be, too.
