Customer Reviews

This is well worth the time to read and enjoy.

Life has a way of humbling us and too often people just give up and accept the label of 'Loser'. This book very capably shows how 12 people of the Bible called on God and their lives were remarkably turned around and they were made champions. A major joy to read the descriptions so artfully written in the language of contemporty young people.
