The Smallest of Seeds R A Sheats

A priest, a cobbler, a village tailor, a fiery-haired preacher-and a Book that set the world aflame. Such were the humble tools God employed to spark the sixteenth century Reformation in France and French-speaking Switzerland. Who were the men and women behind such a great move of God? What were their names, and have their stories ever been told?

The Smallest of Seeds: Forgotten Reformation Heroes recounts the stories of sixteen forgotten or little-known heroes of the Reformation in French-speaking lands. Ordinary lives which quickly transform into tales of startling bravery and harrowing danger fill each page as the Light of God's Truth encounters the darkness of human error and sin. From a priest to a Waldensian pastor, from a lowly printer to an exalted princess, the fascinating accounts of these unknown characters provide a poignant illustration of the fact that God uses all means-particularly ordinary ones-to fulfill His extraordinary plan. These tales are sure to challenge and inspire a new generation of believers to press onward in the glorious work of Reformation in our own day.

Makes a great family read-aloud!
