A Thousand Shall Fall



Read an excerpt from the book

 In this novel we are taken back to the autumn of the year 1864. The novel takes place during the American Civil war.    We meet the main Character Carrie Ann Bell, who has fled her home in search of her runaway sister Sarah.   Carrie Ann disguises herself as a Yankee soldier and soon finds herself in  the midst of a skirmish near Front Royal.  Instead of finding her sister, Carrie Ann finds herself arrested for impersonating an officer.

This novel is full of romance, suspense, and historical facts.  The author has done a lot of good research, and it shows.   This novel shows the reader what it was like back during the civil war, how the people felt, through the characters.

I enjoyed this book immensely.  It shows how one's character can change when they accept Christ, it is full of Christian value, and it gives a great feel for how the people suffered during the civil war.

This book comes highly recommended.

The Lion Comic Book Hero Bible


 







This is an interesting new version of the Bible, the authors have taken people from the Bible, and have presented them in a super hero style. you will be introduced to people like Faith Man, The Runner (Jonah), my favorite, Dreadlocks, (Samson), Rainman (Noah) and there are many more that make up the Bible.

This is a very unique format, that will interest kids of all ages. I feel it could be used to lead some into reading their Bibles more, after sparking their interests in this unique style. I would use this in a Sunday School setting, to help teach some lessons, giving a great new twist on the lessons, or even at home for a different type of devotion time.

Exploring Christian Theology Volume One

Theology, when people think of the subject, they think "boring" I'll never get through
it.  In reality, theology is just the teaching of God's word, and an important
topic to learn about.

The author's have done a good job of teaching in this volume.  They have brought it down into terms we can understand, and make it come clear.

I like the format of this book, not only can one learn on their own, but this book can be used in a class room situation, for a Bible study,or other group situation.

Each topic is given an introduction, overview and a review of the key points. Memory verses are given as well as any distortions of doctrine that may be taught.
