Eric Liddell by Janet Benge
Something Greater Than Gold
A vivid portrait of a Scottish athlete whose deep Christian convictions led him to forgo a favored Olympic event rather than race on a Sunday, only to triumph unexpectedly in another race and earn global acclaim. Leaving fame behind, he returned to China as a missionary teacher, serving tirelessly amid political upheaval and war. His steady humility and sacrificial compassion shone most brightly during World War II internment, inspiring all who knew him and cementing a legacy of integrity and faith.
