God often chooses unsuspecting heroes and writes unlikely endings to his stories. Many of the characters in the Bible are even unnamed, yet their adventures reveal the kind of lasting impact that God intends each of us.

Why do the vast majority of us live out unremarkable days in spite of our God-given hunger for significance? Unsung is one thing, but why settle for uninteresting? Or even worse, uninvolved? If you have the eyes of faith to see and the courage to act, you can join God's roster of unforgettable heroes. Each of the eight chapters in this audiobook:

Focuses on one unnamed hero and shows how God works through everyday people
Gives insight into how God intends to fill our lives with significance and adventure
Combines stories of Bible heroes, incredible accounts of modern-day unnamed heroes, and solid biblical insight
Concludes with "Releasing Your Heroic Potential" questions to help individuals or small groups identify next steps

Be an Unsuspected hero

Reviewed in the United States on 1 March 2010

I have read this book three times and still find new hidden messages not only in the characters but the intended messages. WOW. I love this book. Simple and yet thought provoking. A class using the guide is a must for adults as well as children. I teach Junk Art and my purpose is to reveal to the children the idea that "you don't need money to be an artist" all you need to do is to look in the junk drawer in your kitchen or the recycling bin. Chris Travis writes that you don't need money or a title to be a hero. We are all unsuspecting heroes when we do for others as we would have them do for us. Simple kindness. Simple smiles. The references he uses from the Bible are just astounding. I have read most of these references and I am most appreciative that I claim this book as mine. It is a goldmine of wonderful ways to interact with people of all ages. Stop and ask yourself, how can I be an "UNNAMMED Unsuspecting Hero Singled out by God". Beautiful book. Can't wait to get the study guide for our youth group at Garden Park Unity Church in Cincinnati, Ohio. Love the name and the cover of the book. Thank you Mr. Chris Travis for a job well done.

Great for Groups

As the minister of a church I am always on the lookout for good books to use in small groups. "Unnamed" (and the accompanying study guide, purchased separately) is one of them. The author's writing style is clear, engaging and transparent. He makes the stories from Scripture come alive as we read. In the group I'm currently leading we have people who do not know Jesus and others who have known Him for years. Unnamed is challenging all of us to ponder how God can use us to have an impact. I can't wait to see what this author writes next!

UN/NAMED

Reviewed in the United States on 8 April 2010

Chris Travis has hit on a unique concept with his first text effort. This book is not only an interesting read, it is a great resource and study guide all-in-one. He gives examples of real-life, generally unknown, characters in Scripture that were used by God to work His will.

He then makes the case for how God can also work with each of us in a similar manner to do great things, and draw us closer to Him.

The Scripture references present the basis for each character, and Chris then provides numerous other passages to support and expand each concept of how God can work with us, and within us.

A valuable book that will be read and re-read, and would be a great tool for small groups or Bible Studies.

Unnamed - Great Storytelling

Reviewed in the United States on 18 May 2010

This book was an excellent read. It brought new meaning to some Bible stories as it told them from the perspective of an unamed hero in the story. It would be a great reesource for a small group (adult or youth).

An Amazing Read!

I am so thankful that Chris Travis wrote this book. If someone is having some questions in their faith or has trouble in believing, this book is for them. The book talks about normal people, not celebrities. It helps put things into perspetive that most people can understand. It's not preachy and gives advice how to better understand our faith and be a hero for the Lord.
