About this listen

In Seven Men, New York Times best-selling author Eric Metaxas presents seven exquisitely crafted short portraits of widely known - but not well understood - Christian men, each of whom uniquely showcases a commitment to live by certain virtues in the truth of the gospel.

Written in a beautiful and engaging style, Seven Men addresses what it means (or should mean) to be a man today, at a time when media and popular culture present images of masculinity that are not the picture presented in Scripture and historic civil life. What does it take to be a true exemplar as a father, brother, husband, leader, coach, counselor, change agent, and wise man? What does it mean to stand for honesty, courage, and charity, especially at times when the culture and the world run counter to those values?

Each of the seven biographies represents the life of a man who experienced the struggles and challenges to be strong in the face of forces and circumstances that would have destroyed the resolve of lesser men. Each of the seven men profiled - George Washington, William Wilberforce, Eric Liddell, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Jackie Robinson, John Paul II, and Charles Colson - call listeners to a more elevated walk and lifestyle, one that embodies the gospel in the world around us.

A higher calling

Metakas invites us into the lives of some extraordinary World Changers. May we emulate the character and integrity of the men portrayed in this work.

Well Done and Great format

I definitely enjoyed the way Eric Metaxas presented each of these biographies. Short but thorough and always kept my attention. I plan on getting other books written by Eric since I liked this one so much.

7 Men whose witnesses survive them

Metaxas is quickly replacing David McCullough as my favorite author.

If you’ve ever wondered what difference Jesus makes and how faith in Him and obedience to His calling is relevant to the world we’re living in, the stories of these 7 men should go a long way toward answering the question. Thank God for these men and for Eric Metaxas’s blessing us with their stories.

Life changing and impassioned content for anyone

I could hardly stop listening to the lives of these men even though familiar to me. Please make them and their lives part of the way you live.

Great stories of 7 remarkable men

I learned so much about the men written about that I didn't know. I love all of Eric Metaxas' writings.
