description: To put it bluntly, William Wilberforce changed history. As depicted in the major motion picture Amazing Grace, the extraordinarily ordinary man led a tireless crusade against the English slave trade 200 years ago. He was a tiny David taking on an enormous capitalistic Goliath that was a large part of the British economy -- and he succeeded. How did Wilberforce find the strength to carry on his nearly twenty-year fight against human oppression? Live to Serve examines the life of William Wilberforce to find parallels between this world-changer and the potential world-changers in our modern society today. Intertwined with wisdom from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount and compelling, real-life stories about world-changers around us, World-Changers is at once an engaging history lesson and a forward thinking treatment on the way we can change the world, one person at a time. Forward by Don Soderquist (retired COO and Vice Chairman of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.)
