An accomplished magician, I have seen him do little sleight of hand tricks for children (pull a coin from behind their ear, for example) while greeting people at the church door on Sunday morning. A little known fact about Dr. W, master with illusion as well as words. Excellent book.
A Casual Look At A Great Bible Teacher
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Wiersbe's autobiography is a pleasure to read. Many of us respect him as a great Bible teacher, but one reason his teaching ministry is so effective is that Wiersbe is PERSONABLE. His personableness comes out in his life's story.We often think of great Bible teachers as somehow belonging to a different level of humanity. Wiersbe destroys that illusion with a real flesh and blood picture of himself, a man whose idea of exercising is walking to the library and who experiences both the joys and aggravations of people. Good reading.
A real treat

When I come home really tired from work, I grab this book, jump into bed, and read it to relax. Time and again, it refreshed me and unwound me.
Wiersbe, at his very best!

Dr. Wiersbe is a gift to all the church, particularly those in ministry. This book not only acquaints the reader with the authors considerable accomplishments, it also reveals a side of the man that is not visible in many of his other writings. Specifically, he touches on core values and guiding principles in his own ministry. As always, his writing style is engaging and very readable. If you read and enjoy this book, you'll love Wiersbe's "On Being a Servant of God". For those who are particularly fond of Wiersbe, you'll enjoy the appendix which includes notes on each of the author's books. This is one I'll read and re-read again and again! The quotes alone are worth the price of the book.
