Eric Liddell Running for a Higher Prize (Heroes for Young Readers)

by Renee Taft Meloche

Book Overview

Just when Eric Liddell's dream was coming true, he stunned the world by refusing to run his Olympic race on a Sunday, a day he believed was for honoring God. Many people thought Eric was a traitor and a fool, for they were sure he would have won. But Eric believed God's promise "He who honors me, I will honor" - and God kept His promise. From winning Olympic gold to leaving his fame behind to go to China as a missionary, Eric put God in first place. (1902-1945)
