Product Description:
The story of William Tennent and his log College is one of the remarkable stories of both church and American history. Through Tennent's controversial school, sixty colleges and universities were born. Through his school, a great series of spiritual revivals was advanced. However, few understand the price he paid to see all these things come to pass. This story is one of the great testimonies of how even the smallest seed of vision can grow up to bear unimaginable fruit when coupled with courage and endurance. The lessons here, if learned, can still change the course of families, churches, schools, and nations.

My wife read this book before me and commented how amazing this book is. It is not just history and a testamony of a man who shaped history, but it is full of valuable lesson which inspire and can be applied in our lives today.
