I will definitely be reading this book to my children about an influential Scottish minister called Knox by an influential Scottish minister called Ferguson. A great read on one of the heroes of our Reformed faith!
This is not just a great little introduction to a hero of the faith. It is a wonderful encouragement for children, showing that the Lord really is sufficient for every situation, that he is faithful, and that he does, in truth, use all things for the good of those who love him.
For years, I lived in Edinburgh, just steps from the historic John Knox House and St. Giles’ Cathedral. Yet, there was so much about his life I never knew. Sinclair Ferguson’s new children’s book on John Knox reveals fascinating details about his early years, offering an engaging glimpse into the man behind the Scottish Reformation. Perfect for young readers, the Do Great Things for God series is an excellent introduction to church history while providing faithful encouragement for both children and adults.
