Twelve Unlikely Heroes

. . . the men and women highlighted in the Bible were unnervingly real . . . Scripture does not hide their weaknesses. Instead, it describes these heroes of the faith with unflinching honesty and delivers an unexpected ending: “God is not ashamed to be called their God” (Hebrews 11:16).  In Twelve Unlikely Heroes, pastor and best-selling author John MacArthur uses his deep knowledge of the Bible and history to take us back to see these three-dimensional men and women in their own times and cultures.  In doing so, it becomes clear how their dramatic stories apply to us today.  People who might at first seem foreign quickly become familiar and unforgettable -- particularly as they reveal the true Hero behind every witness . . .
