Description
Publisher's Description of Robert E. Lee (Sowers)
A man of impeccable character, he became one of the most respected soldiers and men in America – even in defeat. Robert E. Lee was one of the most truly remarkable men in our nation's history. The author writes, "I searched diligently for a flaw in Lee's character. There was none." What was this general's secret? He was a Christ-bearer. His secret was that he found the source of his strength and commitment in Christ. On the coming of the Civil War: "I fear it is now out of the power of man and in God alone must be our trust. No act could give me so much pleasure as to restore peace to my country. God is our refuge and our strength. Let us humble ourselves before Him. Let us confess our sins and beseech Him to give a higher courage, a purer patriotism and a more determined will; that He will convert the hearts of our enemies; that He will hasten the time when war, with its sorrows and sufferings shall cease, and that He will give us a name and place among the nations of the earth." On the Bible: "There are things in the old Book which I may not be able to explain, but I fully accept it as the infallible Word of God and receive its teaching as inspired by the Holy Spirit." On his faith in God: "I believe a kind God has ordered all things for our good. My reliance is in the help of God. At present I am not concerned with results. God's will ought to be our aim, and I am contented that His designs should be accomplished and not mine. We must suffer patiently to the end, when all things will be made right. I can only say that I am nothing but a poor sinner, trusting in Christ alone for salvation."

Category Description for Sowers Series Biographies
We often hear the opinion expressed that Christians should not bring their personal faith into their public lives. Fortunately for the world, the men and women portrayed in the Sower Series Biographies did not believe this. For instance, on the day after he took command of the Continental Army, George Washington issued an order forbidding profanity and requiring attendance at divine services. Isaac Newton, Robert Boyle, and Louis Pasteur, some of the foremost scientists of their day, used their work to glorify God. At a time when our young people need heroes, these books present faithful Christians who made an impact on their world.
