  Additional Info
  Amid the golden era of Dutch art, Clara has a passion for painting and life. But the two don’t always mix. Her father is long overdue from Italy with the latest paint recipes, but lies, famous art, rare tulips, and sugary girls crowd Clara’s search for her father. Someone knows where he might be, but it will cost more than Clara’s talents to find out. Unfortunately, all the car-chase scenes have been excised.

  Christianity presents a glorious vision of culture, a vision overflowing with truth, beauty, and goodness. It’s a vision that stands in stark conflict with the anemic modern (and postmodern) perspectives that dominate contemporary life. Medieval Christianity began telling a beautiful story about the good life, but it was silenced in mid-sentence. The Reformation rescued truth, but its modern grandchildren have often ignored the importance of a medieval grasp of the good life. This book sketches a vision of “medieval Protestantism,” a personal and cultural vision that embraces the fullness of Christian truth, beauty, and goodness.

  This volume is a breath of fresh air in our polluted religious environment. Hopefully many readers will breathe deeply of its contents and be energized.

  Additional Info
  Huguenot Garden is a children’s story of the daily and adventurous episodes in the lives of Renee and Albret Martineau, young twin sisters in a seventeenth-century, French Protestant family.

  The episodes follow the twins and the rest of the Martineau family as they work, worship, commune, and suffer persecution together.

  The story aims to portray the ideas and historical details common to Huguenot life in La Rochelle, France, 1685, a tragic year whose final quarter brought the full wrath of Louis XIV. For children five and up.
