A Treasure Trove Discovered

A friend of mine at work recently gave me several copies of a periodical called The Banner of Sovereign Grace. Last night I got to read through several of them, and I was greatly encouraged by everything that they contained. Through these wonderful magazines I also learned of an online bookstore called Reformation Heritage Books. What a wealth of great resources for young and old alike. There are pages of children’s book options with biographies of great Christians, scientists, explorers and so forth. There are also books to encourage families in worship and discipleship, and Puritan reprints of every kind. I have frequently pointed to the woeful material being published by the secular owned Christian media giants. Well, here is the antidote. If you’re thinking of buying meaningful gifts for friends and loved ones this Christmas season, here’s a good place to get it all done in September! Here are a few on my wish list:

Wilhelmus a Brakel’s The Christian’s Reasonable Service

Puritans onPrayer

The Family At Home There 68 practical chapters covering everything from courtship and marriage to showing respect for the aged.

Bible Animals by Richard Newton - Newton was called the Prince of preachers for children. Uses 26 different animals from the Bible to apply many precious truths to the heart of children.

Bible Jewels by Richard Newton - “This book is a little casket filled with precious Bible jewels,” says the publisher.

The Family Worship Book: A Resource Book for Family Devotions

These are just a few of the wonderful books on offer at Heritagebooks.org.

I’ll be interviewing Steve Renkema, Manager of Reformation Heritage Bookstore on Crosstalk, Monday, October 8. We’ll be talking about the fine resources they offer and the importance of discipling our children for the Lord.
