God & Churchill by Jonathan Sandys
When Winston Churchill was a boy of sixteen, he already had a vision for his purpose in life. This country will be subjected somehow to a tremendous invasion . . . I shall be in command of the defences of London . . . it will fall to me to save the Capital, to save the Empire.It was a most unlikely prediction. Perceived as a failure for much of his life, Churchill was the last person anyone would have expected to rise to national prominence as prime minister and influence the fate of the world during World War I. But Churchill persevered, on a mission to achieve his purpose. God and Churchill tells the remarkable story of how one man, armed with belief in his divine destiny, embarked on a course to save Christian civilization when Adolf Hitler and the forces of evil stood opposed. It traces the personal, political, and spiritual path of one of history's greatest leaders and offers hope for our own violent and troubled times.
More than a spiritual biography, God and Churchill is also a deeply personal quest. Written by Jonathan Sandys (Churchill's great-grandson) and former White House staffer Wallace Henley, God and Churchill explores Sandys' intense search to discover his great-grandfather--and how it changed his own destiny forever.
Henley, Wallace: - Wallace Henley helps answer these questions from his unique perspective of almost a half century as a Bible student and teacher, and 40 years as a pastor working with many people and families in the 'death channel' and his own experience of loss. Wallace Henley opens this fascinating book with personal reminiscences of the passing of his father and one of his dearest friends. Wallace Henley went from a career in journalism and government that took him to the White House as an aide to the President of the United States... but he considers the highest role God entrusted to him as caring for people as a pastor, and, as a teacher and author, helping them enter the Kingdom of God in the present world and in eternity. As you read this book, you will understand why.
