Lesson 2

A.W. Tozer is one of the most quoted preachers of another century. Why? His legacy is still touching lives today. What Scripture did God use to direct his life of 55 years of service? What can you learn from his life to bless yours and others?

Lesson 3

A mother that God dramatically used to rear two sons that would shake 2 continents with the Gospel and start a denomination that would span both. What Scripture impacted her life? What can you learn from a common and yet extraordinary mother? What can you take away for her legacy that will allow you to better influence your family?

Lesson 4

What was it about the verse Luke 11:13 that affected Oswald Chambers whose few short years of ministry are still touching lives around the globe? What can you learn from his short life that will help you to be a more influential servant for Christ?

Lesson 5

What principle did Adoniram Judson get a hold of that caused him to dedicate himself to a life of service for God in a foreign country? He would bury several wives and numerous children in Burma and yet he left more than 200,000 converts in that rugged country. What can you learn from his legacy that will help you to be more committed in the face of all obstacles?

Lesson 6

Handicaps? Limitations? Difficulties? Fanny Crosby, perhaps the greatest hymn writer of all time was blind, had a failed marriage and lost her only child to death as an infant and yet the affects of her life spent for God are still echoing in the pews of churches today. What can you learn from Scripture and from her legacy that will propel you to allow God to use you to affect your generation and subsequent ones?
