Read by Annette Hubbell

How do ordinary people become extraordinary? Annette Hubbell asks that question of seventeen world changers in this one-of-a-kind fiction/non-fiction collection of spellbinding conversations with the most unlikely of bedfellows. Spanning the ages, from Galileo to Johnny Cash, these seventeen tell all from their heavenly vantage point. Let them reveal to you their secret to eternity's timelessness. (Hint, it has something to do with who gets the credit.). In addition to Galileo and Cash, you'll hear from Abraham Lincoln, C. S. Lewis, J. S. Bach, John Newton, Elizabeth Fry, Sojourner Truth, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Harriet Tubman, George Washington Carver, Amy Carmichael, Mary McLeod Bethune, Aimee Semple McPherson, Corrie ten Boom, Gladys Aylward, and Louie Zamperini. All were wildly famous in their day, some still are. These seventeen biographies are written as autobiographies, and the actual words of each historical figure are in italics to differentiate from those of the author's. If you're looking for accuracy and source documents, you'll find it in the 606 endnotes. If you want to dig deeper, each profile ends with places to visit, either in person or via the internet. Each story is also tagged with three Scripture verses that might have been their favorites. Because this book is written as a collection of stories, it can be read in any order, and would make an excellent subject for a book club or an in-depth home school curriculum. Annette is a San Diego native who enjoys writing, acting, history, and traveling to the Holy Lands. Her first book, "A Spoonful of Grace: Mealtime blessings in Bite-Sized Pieces" was awarded the 2018 Illumination Award, given for exemplary Christian writing, in the family/parenting division. Please visit her website at www.annettehubbell.com. Before the book, there was acting. Before the acting was a career in water management. But then, Annette decided to actively pursue a creative side. She wrote and performed her first play, "Witness to Gettysburg" in 2009 and performed it more than 200 times. She portrayed Eleanor Roosevelt in "Tea with Mrs. Roosevelt" written by Sherrie Colbourn. (Younger audiences often ask why she speaks in such a high-pitched voice-they don't know that Eleanor's voice could be a challenge to listen to!) Her third production is "Women Warriors" in which she portrays seven extraordinary world changers. They didn't start out as extraordinary-quite the contrary-but they all ended up with something in common: they publicly gave credit to God for their accomplishments.
