Description
*Condition Note: Book is lightly used and clean.*
Almost gone are the days when children sat by the fire to hear Grandpa tell stories of days gone by—stories that painted a mural of harder times survived by sacrifice, commitment, and God's everlasting love.
This book is an invitation to sit at the feet of our forefathers and listen to their stories. Meet people who gave themselves, so totally and completely, to God's divine plans. Listen to stories that link you to a miraculous history and a rich Seventh-day Adventist heritage.
