Studying the lives of men and women of Scripture is a satisfying and useful investigation for all true followers of God. As Augustine once expressed, "The sacred record, like a faithful mirror has no flattery in its portrait." The people of the Bible are exposed as the sinners that they are. While looking at heroes and villains of Scripture, the reader will not only learn about character flaws and attributes, but will discover practical doctrines that encourage us to live for Christ. The historic characters of the Bible teach us that choices have consequences and that the life we have been given must be dedicated to God's glory, not ours. Dr. Stuart is President of Proclamation Ministries, a non-profit organization offering consulting services to churches in conflict and retreats for students and pastors. Bob is an Adjunct Professor at New Geneva Seminary in Colorado Springs and serves as Interim Pastor to Reformed churches around the country as needed. In the 60's, while at Villanova University, Bob became an atheist, believing faith was for fools. After his Jewish wife committed herself to Jesus, he was forced to examine the claims of Christ. After nine years and three children, divorce seemed a crucial choice until he noticed a peace in his wife that intrigued him. While attempting to refute her new "religion" Bob met Christ. Dr. Stuart holds degrees from Villanova University, William and Mary Law School, Princeton Seminary, and Reformed Seminary. He lives in Colorado Springs with his wife and enjoys being Grampa to seven of the best grandchildren ever born.
