Description

John Wycliffe wanted everyone to have access to the Bible, not just the rich, powerful and well–educated. He was a Catholic priest who wasn’t happy with the way things were being done in the Church.

 

Through compelling storytelling, readers will discover how Wycliffe’s ground breaking work in translating the Bible into English laid the foundation for future reformers. Having a profound impact on the Christian faith, Wycliffe’s unwavering commitment to making the Scriptures accessible to all people meant he was a forerunner for the English Reformation.

 

The Trailblazer series collects great stories from Christians of the past and delivers them to the young people of today.  This gripping and astonishing story from David Luckman will challenge young readers to be bold for God like John Wycliffe did.

 

A well–known and long–standing series:

  • Over 50 titles
  • Great for ages 9 to 14
  • Published in 14 languages
  • Half a million books sold
  • Also available in box sets when one book is not enough! 7 themed box sets, each with 5 books

Each biography follows the trailblazer’s journey to faith, and on to the work that God had planned for them. With lots of dialogue, these engaging stories show how God uses normal individuals to bring about his purpose.

 

Each book features:

  • Thinking Further Topics for each chapter to help readers think about how what they’ve read applies to their life today
  • Timeline of important events in the lifetime of each book’s subject

Endorsements

This is a great book about a real hero of Christianity. We owe so much to people like John Wycliffe. He was one of the first people to translate the Bible into English, inspiring Wycliffe Bible Translators to do for others what he did for English speakers. His teaching paved the way for the Reformation, and his life inspires us to stand firm in Christ. A terrific read!
