I have seen the movie, which I liked, but the book is (of course) better, mostly because there’s more in it. Also, Wilberforce’s community comes much more alive in the book than in the movie.
And Metaxas’s retweet made my day

I have this book already and it is on my reading list for the fall. My wife and I loved Bonhoeffer, too. If you have seen the movie, how does it compare? Also, I have read Heaven’s Command by Jan Morris and she shows how influentual Wilberforce was in setting British policy of enforcing anti-slavery (and morality, in general) during the Victorian era. By the way, I was tweeted here by Metaxas himself!
