But I learned that there are so many facets of people pleasing, and I certainly have a few of them. Lou Priolo convicts and helps to recover from this habit. Practical book for a respected sin. May we become God pleasers instead of people pleasers!...more

The best book on the assurance of salvation from modern authors. Clear and biblical. The books deals with false conversations, so false converts could have a negative reaction to the book. But it is so needed. You should want to know if you are truly saved or not, so that you can enter the narrow gate (if you have not done that yet) and walk the narrow way that leads to our true Home....more

Thomas Watson never writAs soon as I started this one I asked myself: why did I wait so long to start another puritan book? They are sooo refreshing. Thomas Watson never writes a filler-sentence. His every sentence has a meaning. The book is full of quotes to underline and remember. It goes through the theme of what is a godly man chapter by chapter, looking at different biblical aspects of godliness. This is worth your time.
Every real Christian wants to be godly. Sometimes we get confused and can't recognize real godliness from a fake one. This book will help us to grow in the knowledge of what godliness really is and will encourage us to grow in godliness, too. Let's encourage each other to godliness. Godliness gives us great gains in this life and eternity....more

This is an awesome booklet/small book about Lucy (the missing "missing link") and evolution. I love that there are so many pictures. When you see the This is an awesome booklet/small book about Lucy (the missing "missing link") and evolution. I love that there are so many pictures. When you see the bones of Lucy you cannot unsee them. Such a little number of bones and so many interpretations posing as truth in school textbooks.
I wish every 7th grader in our country would read this booklet, so that kids wouldn't be indoctrinated with the old evolution theory that has never been proved....more

There are a lot of books in the series (written in 1954-1989) to keep your YA readers satisfied for long (like 70+ books!). Anekopress is making Danny Orlis adventure series into ebooks and audiobooks right now (2024), so the opportunity to use them in our families won't cost a thing.
What I didn't like - this book had too many references to crushes, joking about relationship and mention of "she will have many boyfriends later". But may be that was only in this book. Still - mainstream Christian who goes to public school could be blessed by this, since there are Christian values....more

It wI grew up thinking that catechisms are not a baptist thing, and that they are stiff and boring. I was wrong. This is historical baptist catechism. It would be really helpful for young Christians to grow in solid theology + a great help for families teaching their children in the knowledge and admonition of The Lord. I myself would benefit by internalizing the main basic doctrines I do believe, but sometimes it's hard for me to formulate when suddenly asked about them....more
