Why Read Christian Biographies?
Hebrews 11 is a divine mandate to read Christian biography.
The unmistakable implication of the chapter is that, if we hear about the faith of our forefathers (and mothers), we will “lay aside every weight and sin” and “run with perseverance the race that is set before us”.
If we asked the author, “How shall we stir one another up to love and good works?” , his answer would be:
“Through encouragement from the living and the dead” Christian biography is the means by which “body life” cuts across the generations.
