Many are aware of the role Wilberforce played in the abolition of slavery in Great Britain, but few have taken the time to examine the beliefs and motivations that drove him for decades. In this concise book, John Piper tells the story of Wilberforce's transformation from a young unbelieving politician to a radical, God-centered Christian, and how his deep spirituality helped change the moral outlook of an entire nation.
John Piper's succinct and eminently penetrating study of William Wilberforce deserves to become an acclaimed bestseller.
