  • Christians--Biography/Autobiography recommendations?

    I'm looking for some recommendations of Christian biographies/autobiographies. I'd appreciate a brief synopsis or the reason you really liked it. Some of the ones that I've already read (and own most):

    The Hiding Place by Corrie ten Boom

    God's Smuggler by Brother Andrew

    Bruchko by Bruce Olson

    Through Gates of Splendor by Elisabeth Elliot

    A Chance to Die by Elisabeth Elliot (about Amy Carmichael)

    Evidence Not Seen by Darlene Deibler Rose

    By Searching by Isobel Kuhn

    The Life and Campaigns of Lt. General Thomas J. Stonewall Jackson by Robert Lewis Dabney

    As well as miscellaneous Heroes of the Faith (and similar type series of biographies) about Eric Lidell, Charles Spurgeon, Hudson Taylor, etc). Usually these books are decent introductions, but not stellar works.

    And, I'm currently reading

    The Cross and the Switchblade by David Wilkerson.
