Here is a quote I pulled off of Joshua Phillip's website http://www.ballantynethebrave.com/. It is by my favorite boys literature author, G.A. Henty. This is an example of what is in his books.
"To be a true hero you must be a true Christian. To sum up then, heroism is largely based on two qualities- truthfulness and unselfishness, a readiness to put one's own pleasures aside for that of others, to be courteous to all, kind to those younger than yourself, helpful to your parents, even if helpfulness demands some slight sacrifice of your own pleasure. . .you must remember that these two qualities are the signs of Christian heroism." - G.A. Henty
