This fifth book in the series was my favorite of them all. They are smartly written and don't necessarily go for the most well known people of our time. I love how it is not totally American focused and spreads the stories over the globe with variety of characters, missions and lives. I love the whole series, but what a great book to inspire and enlighten our children about the Church and it's history.
We love this serie, we read it as a family and it's easy to understand for the kids. Sometimes the dialog is a little bit forced and strained, but having dialogs help the kids really picture the history of it all and understand the fact that these names belong to real people, who did exist.
great for discussion in our homeschool and family, in which we are trying to really teach about redemptive history, a biblical worldview, and the direction of the church today
My 8 year old son and I read this series together and we both learned a lot.
