 Another excellent "Great Lives" from Swindoll December 8, 2008
Having read almost all of Charles Swindoll's "Great Lives" series, I rate this one as excellent as the rest. What I like about this book is that he incorporates negative characters. There is as much to be learned from the not-so-great lives, I think, as there is from the great ones.
Very thought provoking January 7, 2008

This book identifies some very good insights as to the possible thinking of the principle Biblical characters Charles Swendoll presents. Swendoll does a magnificant job of developing the story behind the story. In most cases' in the Bible, readers focus on the apparent discussion presented. Obviously, the scriputres were developed to search out happenstance and event. Swendoll does a great job of assisting the reader to consider other factors behind the principle objective. Swendoll is not distracting from the point of the Biblical account, rather he is offering the reader to look beyond and discover new and interesting accounts for application. I hightly recommend this book for the serious spirtual reader.

Is there anyone who can make the Bible come more alive than Chuck Swindoll? Me thinks not!
In the latest installment in the Great Lives from God's Word Series, Chuck takes lives from God's words, some known and some rather obscure and puts them under the microscope; while in turn pointing out applicable spiritual truths for 21st century lives. Very readable and highly recommended.
