“Isaac Newton” by Mitch Stokes will challenge your socks off!

If you want to be motivated and challenged by the story of an incredible life, “Isaac Newton” by Mitch Stokes will leave you fascinated by how much one man can contribute in a lifetime.

A part of the “Christian Encounters” series published by Thomas Nelson, this little book tells the story of Sir Isaac Newton, the greatest figure in the history of mathematics and science … but don’t let that scare you! The book is an easy, enjoyable read about the man, not the math!

Any reader can find themselves challenged and motivated reading about how Newton accomplished some of the greatest scientific and mathematical discoveries by the age of 24. Even though Newton spent his life as a philosopher, physicist, inventor and astronomer, his work was motivated by his faith. Newton didn’t simply believe theology and science could exist harmoniously, but rather science was a key way of explaining theology. Although Newton wasn’t known as a great theologian, he wrote extensively more about theology and religion than all of his other work combined.

This very private man, who avoided the spotlight and waited years to share with the world his greatest discoveries, was a towering intellect complete with all the flaws of any ordinary person. It will leave you wondering just how much you can contribute to humanity if you tried half as hard as Newton did.
