Heralds Of The Reformation
$15.00Add to cartThe sixteenth century in Europe was a tumultuous time. Monumental inventions like the printing press occurred alongside huge philosophical shifts caused by Copernicus. But just as important was the seismic upheaval within Christendom herself, as the Church of Rome responded to internal rebuke with oppression. In thirty short biographies, Heralds of the Reformation tells the important story of the struggle between the theological authorities and the men and women who refused to keep quiet about the sheer grace of the Gospel.

Radiant : Fifty Remarkable Women In Church History
$18.00Add to cartRadiant records the triumph of the gospel as Christian women faced kings and governors, soldiers and wild beasts, Japanese guards and Muslim raiders, fire, exile, the chopping block, Nazis, cannibals, riots and more. “Look to heaven and forsake the world” has been their cry for two thousand years, but being “spiritually minded” in this way hasn’t made these women ethereal — it’s made them invincible.
From South America to Europe, from China to Africa to the Wild West, in prisons and in throne rooms, the Christian heroines of Radiant have left a stunning legacy. These short and moving biographies for young people introduce fifty often unfamiliar champions of the faith: women like Ida Kahn, who opened the first clinic in a Chinese city of 300,000 people; Lady Anne Hamilton, who rode with the Covenanter cavalry at the decisive Battle of Berwick; and Anngrace Taban, who was forced to type secret battle plans for the Sudan People’s Liberation Army.

Trial And Triumph
$21.00Add to cartChristians find their true family line not through tribes and ethnic blood but in the bond of faithfulness and shed blood that has united our family for millennia. We too often view Church history as the story of obscure aliens instead of the lives of brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers. In this collection of forty-six brief biographies for children, Hannula sketches the stirring trials and triumphs of many famous and some lesser known figures in our family of faith – including Augustine, Charlemagne, Anselm, Luther, Bunyan, and C. S. Lewis. Through them we can begin to enjoy the old paths and find rest for our souls.
