Heroism: An Everyday Person’s Guide to Anything-But-Normal Living

by Eric Ludy

The greatest heroes of this day should be those who call themselves Christians. If it is true that we are the Body of Christ, then our hands should be doing what His would do if He were on earth. Our feet should be walking into the places His would have taken Him if He were still walking this globe. Our eyes should see what His would see, our ears hear the same Spirit He heeded, and our hearts beat with the same anguish that burdened His Almighty heart. As the Body of Christ, we are to behave on this earth as He did when He strode upon it. We should gravitate towards the weak ones just as He was magnetically inclined towards their needs. Just as He lived as a Savior, a Rescuer, and a Deliverer, so we live as little christs—little saviors, little rescuers, and little deliverers. We are not God, but we are enabled by the grace of God to live just as He did. And He was a hero.

[Kristi · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book challenged me to think outside myself. It was not what I expected when I picked up the book. I originally bought it for my husband. Once I started flipping through it, I knew I needed to read this.
This book is very short. It took me about 2 days to read it. The concept is simple--we are here on this planet for a bigger purpose then just trying to make it more comfortable for ourselves. Short and to the punch type of book.
