Description

If you've never heard of Robert Annan of Dundee, otherwise known as "the Christian Hero," prepare to be astounded at the amazing grace of God in his life as you turn the pages of this incredible little biography. Its thrilling story will stir you to the depths and almost certainly drive you to your knees with an increased desire to be used for God’s glory. The record of his beginning years reads much like that of John Newton - a life of wandering far from God in the ways of sin and rebellion. At least once he miraculously escaped death through the overruling providence of God. As time passed, he became thoroughly discontented with his sinful life; but he didn't want anything to do with God or Christianity. He thought he could overcome sin and live a morally good life by his own efforts. He soon discovered, however, that he was no match for sin or Satan; and casting himself entirely on God's grace and mercy in Jesus Christ, he was gloriously saved. From the very first day of his conversion, he became a tireless seeker of lost souls. He worked during the day time as a stone mason, but his evenings and weekends were spent preaching in the streets or in homes. Frequently he would spend whole nights in secret prayer, pleading at the throne of grace for lost sinners. As he went to his employment in the early mornings, he would often write Scripture verses on the pavement for others to read as they passed by on their way to work or school. Thus he was instant in season and out of season, using every opportunity to present to men the claims of Jesus Christ and the reality of heaven, hell, and the judgment that awaits every human soul. Read his story and be amazed, remembering that what God did for Robert Annan he can and will do for anyone.

WOW! What a powerful message and a deep challenge in this book. I had never even heard of this Soldier before; what a shame the REAL heroes are seldom heard of. No Christian library should be without this treasure. I read this to my 10 year old son whom has been born again, but he also was very stirred and I'm so thankful. If this book does not set a new flame in your soul, your wood is wet!
I am saving up and hope to buy one of these for every family in our church for Christmas!
This man is a TRUE HERO
Comment
I loved this book and the story. Christians are commanded to proclaim the gospel to this lost and dying world. This book inspires us each to do what we can to fulfill this Holy Command! This book was a quick read and should be read by anyone who is serious about sharing the gospel.
Comment
Can't say enough of the conviction brought to me from reading Robert Annons life after regeneration. I'm convinced that the testimony of his life should spur any reader on to true repentance and not just a said faith. I'm very thankful to our Lord for having read this book.
Comment
My soul was fired by revelation of the life of Christ Jesus in Robert Annan of whom I had never previously heard until "stumbling" across the title while browsing Kingsley Press offerings. The glory of God in His sovereignty as He saves His own I've never seen more clearly than in the complete, radical, new life in brother Annan immediately upon being raised out of eternal death into eternal life when God the Father drew Robert to God the Son. This little book is profound encouragement.
Comment
This is, without a doubt, one of the best short biographies that you will ever read. I couldn't put it down, and upon completion, my heart was desirous to see more souls brought to Christ. This book has left an impression upon my soul that will not soon be diminished. I highly recommend it! Read it, and buy more copies to give away. Perhaps it could be the spark that will ignite the revival that we so desperately need in our generation.
