So, we just finished one for Heroes of History series, which is kind of the other series we do on prominent historic figures, but not necessarily with the missionary take on it. So we have literally been writing them ever since. So we wrote four Christian Heroes books, and they took off. YWAM asked us to write a full book to see how they would go. Some of the books were kind of like – this is one of the most interesting, crazy adventures ever, and it’s made to sound boring and dull. So we started reading a few, and we could only agree with them. The publishers said they noticed there were really no biographies of missionaries, which were really good for kids to read and would hold their attention. And so we had done a lot of that for YWAM, and then YWAM approached us. ![]() You would tell me your story and I would write it as if I was you, and it would get published.

Janet Benge Benjamin Hawkins (BH): Why did you choose to write these biographies? What got you started? ![]()
