"Champions are a rare breed. They trust God while others ask for answers. They step forward while everyone else prays for volunteers. They see beyond the dangers, the risks, the obstacles, and the hardships. WILL YOU ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE TO BE A CHAMPION FOR GOD? "Don't be fooled into thinking that you don't have what it takes to be a champion. The wonderful truth is, God can do whatever He must do to make you a champion." What is God calling you to do? More importantly, what excuses are you giving Him for not stepping forward to the challenge? "I'm only a layperson... I don't have any training...I'm busy with my job... Other people are better qualified..." Why let fears and doubts keep you from becoming a true champion for Him? Lester Sumrall found in the Old Testament hero of Nehemiah the true traits of a champion. When faced with the mountainous task of rebuilding the great wall surrounding Jerusalem, Nehemiah labored undaunted against overwhelming odds until the task was completed. And yet Nehemiah was probably very much like you: an ordinary individual with a heart for God. The Making of a Champion illustrates the qualities that make up extraordinary character. Dr. Sumrall will walk you through the book of Nehemiah and show you how integrity, prayer, faithfulness, compassion, humility, initiative, and "a holy stubbornness" can be developed and used to accomplish God's plans for you. When God puts His hand on a man or woman, "Watch out!" says Dr. Sumrall. "There's no limit to what He can accomplish." And just as Nehemiah rebuilt Jerusalem's new wall from the rubble of the old, you can turn old habits and excuses into traits that will make you a winning, victorious "overcomer" in life. Let Dr. SumrallÔÇöand NehemiahÔÇöshow you how! You can be a champion for God! Champions step forward while everyone else prays for volunteers. They trust God while others ask for answers. They see beyond the dangers, the risks, the obstacles, and the hardships. They know that the battles is the Lord's and we are more than conquerors through Christ. The Bible is replete with examples of ordinary people who knew the secret to becoming victorious Christians. If you are willing, you can be a champion for God! ### From the Back Cover You can be a champion for God Champions step forward while everyone else prays for volunteers.

At the age of 17, as he lay on a deathbed suffering from tuberculosis, he received a vision: suspended in midair to the right of his bed was a casket; on his left was a large open Bible. He heard these words: "Lester, which of these will you choose tonight?" He made his decision: he would preach the Gospel as long as he lived. When he awoke the next morning, he was completely healed. Dr. Sumrall ministered in more than 110 countries, including Soviet Siberia, Russia, Tibet, and China. He established Feed the Hungry in 1987. In addition, he wrote over 130 books. His evangelistic association (LeSEA), headquartered in South Bend, Indiana, is still actively spreading God's Word. Dr. Sumrall's goal was to win 1,000,000 souls for the kingdom of God, and the ministry continues this vision. LeSEA ministry includes such outreaches as the World Harvest Bible College, radio and television stations, a teaching tape ministry, and numerous publications. |
