Their Finest Hour

“The former minister of Westminster Chapel, who blessed us with God Meant It for Good, has produced an equally inspiring book—thirty studies on the major characters of the Bible that demonstrate in a fresh manner what true greatness is. This book is a must-read for any Christian desiring true success in life.”

Dr. Robert Jeffress

“This book is vintage Dr. R. T. Kendall. It is brimful of biblical wisdom, rich in pastoral insight, and overflowing with encouragement and challenge. Read, enjoy, and grow in truth and grace!”

J. John

“I remember when this book was being written and R. T. Kendall preached ‘David’s Finest Hour’ from our pulpit in New York City. I told R. T. that it was the best message he had ever preached—and he has preached dozens of times for Times Square Church. To now have twenty-nine more ‘finest hours’ in one book is a treasure. R. T. seems to capture someone’s finest hour the way God would define it. I have literally read dozens of books by R. T. Kendall, and this could very well be his finest one.”

Tim Dilena

“R. T. Kendall is a treasured friend and prayer partner. I have read many of his books, and this one entitled Their Finest Hour may be his finest book yet.”

Dr. Charles Redmond

“If you need to be inspired with vision and faith in your life and leadership, then please read Their Finest Hour. This splendid book will be used to build leaders who will change the world. This book makes me long for all of us to experience our finest hour before we die or before the Lord Himself returns.”

“Following Jesus can be enigmatic. Sometimes it’s hard to know what to do and what not to do. To be exalted, you must humble yourself. To receive, you must give. When persecuted, you must forgive. Yet such unusual mannerisms point to Christlike ‘greatness.’ In his new book Their Finest Hour, Dr. R. T. Kendall presents numerous examples of people in the Bible who manifested true greatness. Both Christ-followers and seekers will benefit from this excellent work written by a truly great man.”

Dr. Steve Gaines

“This book is Dr. R. T. Kendall at his very best—it is incisive and challenging, and you get the sense that somebody has just turned on a light.”

Rob Parsons

“The authors who have meant the most to me through the years are those who make me want to love God more when I read their works. I long to read authors who write in such a way that I need to pause and close the chapter I’m reading because I desire to spend time with the One who created me. R. T. Kendall is that kind of author, and Their Finest Hour is that kind of book. As you read, you will be reminded through every chapter that God works in mysterious ways and that our greatest moments in life frequently take place when we aren’t thinking about ourselves at all. The latest book R. T. Kendall puts out is typically my favorite that he’s written—and I now have a new favorite.”

Jarrett Stephens

“R. T. Kendall has written another amazing book inspiring us to be faithful to God no matter what challenges we may face. I especially admire R. T.’s desire to obey and please God even if this means that some people may not be too pleased. After reading this book, I understand that R. T.’s inspiration comes from the many examples in the Scriptures who only seek the glory from the only God (John 5:44).”

Sam Song

“R. T. Kendall wrote this book ‘to encourage you to follow Jesus daily with a view to being self-effacing . . . that you might be utterly willing to go outside your comfort zone for the sole glory of God.’ He suggests what ‘the finest hours’ of thirty very different Bible characters who chose to believe and obey the Lord were, mostly at deeply challenging times in their lives. I was so inspired by these stories—like with Habakkuk, who was so troubled at the mystery of evil but trusted God; Elijah, who agreed to put his fame in the shadows by requesting a double anointing for his successor; Sarah, who believed she’d have a baby in her old age; Ruth, who loyally stayed with her mother-in-law; and Joseph, who totally forgave the treachery of his brothers. Each of these people highlights the wonder of God’s grace toward us despite our failures, personality flaws, and insignificance in worldly terms. This book could transform your walk with the Lord.”
