Profiles in Greatness

par Theodore Andoseh

What does it take for a child to be great, and what does it take to stay great? In Profiles of Greatness , Theodore Andoseh opens the question with Moses, Paul, and Timothy, children who were distinguished long before they were grown. He then sets two queens side by side. Vashti was given beauty, honour, wealth, and a throne, and lost everything in five minutes because she treated her gifts as her own. Esther, an orphan in a foreign land, kept her place and then spent it on her people, because she had learned to obey, to be grateful, to respect, to hold her anger and to give. Direct, humorous and searching, these teachings draw on the author's own childhood and ministry. They speak to ministers to children, to parents who shape a child by what they say at home, and to young people deciding what to do with all they have received. Inside, you will discover why God's marks matter more than applause, why we are stewards and not owners, how obedience builds moral intelligence, and what it means to be used by God.
