Summary:
What makes a great man great? Seven Men offers answers in the captivating stories of some of the greatest men who ever lived. What was their secret? The seven men in this volume evince one particular quality: that of surrendering themselves to a higher purpose, of giving something away that they might have kept. Having heroes and role models was always important for society, but in the last few decades this has changed, with troubling results. Eric Metaxas says it's time to reverse the trend.
