Early in the sixteenth century, legislative decree in England controlled people’s access to the Scriptures and prohibited an English Bible. But theologian and linguist, William Tyndale, was determined to provide his fellow countrymen with Scripture they could read. In The Daring Mission of William Tyndale, the latest addition to the Long Line of Godly Men series, Dr. Steven J. Lawson traces this daring mission, which was ultimately used by God to ignite the English Reformation and would cost Tyndale his life. From one man’s labor, we’re reminded of God’s faithfulness to preserve His Word and equip His people.

Scientist, inventor, and statesman, and the only man who would sign the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the treaty with France that helped win the Revolutionary War, and the treaty with England that ended it, wanted to be remembered simply as B. Franklin, printer.Franklin knew that words had enormous power. When he could not write his own words freely, he left his brother’s print shop, moving from Boston to New York at the age of seventeen to strike out on his own. David A. Adler tells of Franklin’s growth into a true renaissance man who helped pull thirteen disjointed colonies into one union — the United States.
